The three articles at the bottom of the page are difficult to find in libraries. We have the permission of the late J.C. Catford's family to make his article from 1985 more widely available.
Articles relating to how children learn to pronounce can be found on Piers Messum's website.
Articles by Roslyn Young about Gattegno's model of learning and about teaching English by the Silent Way can be found on her website.
