Research Abstract |
This project sums up the emphasis of teaching English, especially by activating the learners' phonetic skills. Learners of dyslexia have a huge struggle in reading/writing, but in recent studies and governmental support(as observed in US and Singapore), they've shown a noticeable improvement in their remedial classes. To activate learners' phonetic sense, three authors have been introducing a series of aural perception activities in their classrooms since 2010.Further researches and studies are necessary to link dyslexia and aural-centered activities, seeing how effective they work.
