Default Re: Pronunciation Lessons at Uni

I'm not sure how much time you have but it might be beneficial to teach some phonics, but more so, some of the individual phonemes in English.

I assume they have already brushed over these in JHS or just through 6 years of education made some assumptions, but you could also work in images of the shape of the mouth and explain how the mouth is a musical instrument. Changes in shape create changes in sound. Most importantly, if they don't actually create the correct shapes, they can't make the correct sounds.
