🇬🇧 Pronunciation and Passive Communication

🧑🏻‍💻 This is a digital event, and you can join on this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/6668804430?omn=84448960881

Have you noticed how some people pick up languages in no time, while others struggle and struggle and never achieve fluency? The key trait of successful learners isn't the similarity of their native language, nor some innate ability for language learning. What makes you great at learning languages are the tools, methods, and habits you use—and the best news is that anyone can do this with any language!

Yes, you can pronounce any sound in any language. Whether you're from China, Tanzania, Argentina, or Syria, we all have the same mouth. In this module, you'll learn how to use your mouth to improve your pronunciation. We'll also cover passive communication, which usually receives zero attention, despite the fact that we spend most our time communicating passively. In the module, you’ll

  • Train your ears to hear the difference between similar sounds

  • Learn to pronounce new sounds with confidence

  • Master the core vocabulary for passive communication

  • Understand the basics of Norwegian body language

Perfect pronunciation is difficult (not impossible), but with the right techniques, you can improve significantly.

The workshop is led by Erlend Skarsgard Nyheim. Erlend is the co-founder of Sammen om en jobb and Handprints, and speaks six languages. He also holds a degree in education with a specialization in second language acquisition for adults, and has taught hundreds of people how to learn languages more effectively.

The workshop is free and open to anyone who wants to radically speed up their language learning. Priority is given to members of Sammen om en jobb.
