The
institution Pacesetters Edu Services (PES) was founded in September
2012. In February 2016, PES launched its subsidiary as Pacesetters
Phonics and Diction Institute (PPDI). It was established due to the new
trend in the practice and teaching of Phonics and Diction-in-English
known as Oral English/Speech Work in the national curriculum.
This
subject Diction-in-English gained prominence in Nigeria since the year
2000 especially in private schools, due to the great difference it brought up in how its practitioners speak and sound English better than the usual Nigerian English diction. Thus, PPDI is out for learners in the nursery, primary and secondary schools, higher institutions,
graduates, and every individual who is change and standard oriented in Nigeria.
At Pacesetters, we believe that effective communication skills are essential for personal, educational, and professional success. As we strive to provide quality English instruction through our unique methodologies, we recognize the vital role that phonics plays in achieving our objectives.
You may ask, why Learn Phonics?
1. Enhanced Communication Skills: Phonics is the foundation of language learning. By understanding the relationship between sounds and letters, learners can improve their pronunciation, spelling, and overall comprehension. Mastering phonics empowers individuals to communicate more effectively, ensuring their message is accurately understood.
2. Accelerated Language Development: Our instructional strategies focus on the systematic teaching of phonics, which facilitates rapid language acquisition. By breaking down words into their individual sounds, learners gain the ability to decode unfamiliar words and expand their vocabulary with confidence. This boosts their reading and writing skills, enabling them to grasp complex concepts across educational and professional contexts.
3. Increased Confidence and Independence: Learning phonics equips individuals with the tools they need to become independent learners. By building a strong foundation in phonetic principles, students gain the skills to analyze and decode words on their own. This empowers them to engage with texts, express their ideas fluently, and communicate with clarity and self-assurance.
4. Tailored Instructional Approach: At Pacesetters, we understand that every learner is unique. Our phonics training courses are designed to cater to individual needs, ensuring that each student receives personalized instruction. Through engaging activities and materials, we create a supportive and dynamic atmosphere that fosters language development and growth.
As we strive to set the pace in language instruction, we recognize the significant impact that diction can have on effective communication. Let us explore why learning diction is essential in achieving our objectives:
1. Clear and Articulate Communication: Diction refers to the clarity and pronunciation of words. By mastering diction, learners can communicate their thoughts and ideas with precision and eloquence. Through our specialized training courses, students develop the ability to enunciate sounds accurately, enhancing their oral expression and ensuring their message is conveyed effectively.
2. Professional Presentation: In today's competitive world, effective communication is paramount in professional settings. A strong command of diction enables individuals to present themselves confidently and persuasively. Whether it's delivering presentations, engaging in public speaking, or participating in job interviews, our diction training equips learners with the skills to make a lasting impression and achieve their career aspirations.
3. Boosted Listening Skills: Learning diction not only improves one's speaking abilities but also enhances listening skills. By understanding and recognizing the nuances of different sounds and accents, individuals become active and attentive listeners. This heightened listening comprehension enables them to engage more effectively in conversations, discussions, and collaborative projects.
4. Cultural Sensitivity: In an increasingly diverse world, cultural sensitivity is of utmost importance. Learning diction involves understanding the nuances and variations in pronunciation across different regions and cultures. By appreciating and adapting to diverse speech patterns, learners cultivate empathy and respect for others' linguistic backgrounds, fostering harmonious interactions and global understanding.
5. Enhanced Self-Expression: Diction training goes beyond correct pronunciation; it encompasses the rhythm, intonation, and tone of speech. By developing a keen sense of diction, individuals can express themselves with greater emotional depth, emphasizing key points, and evoking desired responses. This heightened self-expression allows for more engaging and impactful communication.
