Common Pronunciation Mistakes and How to Fix Them

Focus on one sound at a time

Trying to correct everything at once can overwhelm children. Pick one sound and practice it in words, phrases, and short sentences.

Use listening before speaking

Children often need to hear the difference many times before they can produce it accurately.

Make practice meaningful

Use words your child actually says in class or daily life so pronunciation work feels useful.
