Hi,
Nice gesture ! Many people who are computer savvy are not perfect in their pronunciatio/accent. This because they learn the words but not the way it has to be spoken.
I find many Local TV News Presenters and Anchors spelling "CHA" in Charisma as cha in Charcoal and not like "cha" in character. Not only these news readers who are only graduates and who were not at ease with english in their course but also highly educated people spell like this.
For example Chauvinism, Chas should be spelled like shau and in Cucumber
cu is not like ku it is to be spelt like Q and 'cum' is not ku but like 'kam' bar.
Therefore, this intro will help those who are computer savvy but not so comfortable in spoken english and written communication. Now they will look towards this aspect in their communication.
It is better if the corporates conduct orientation classes to make the employees realize the flaws in their communication.
The young job aspirants also should develop their sooft skills as well for if they canot spel the word right in their interview it will create a negative impression and if the bosses spell a word wrong their juniors may use it as a point to make mockery of the boss in their conversation and gossip.
My experience:
I had joined as a lecturer and worked for three years and and managed classes but in the fourth year we have admitted students from high profile convent educated students, then I had to encounter the problem in making them to write down the noting points dictated and they were asking twice..thrice and finally I used to write on thr black board. I had then realized that I was good in vocabulary but not that good in spoken words.
Then I had joined a spoken english course of three months organized by Osmania University and paid only Rs. 200 (free for SC/ST)and completed the course at the age of 28 years.
I gained confidence from then onwards and used to correct the students whenever they misspelled a word.
Daniel Jones Dictionary on English Pronunciation is a good guide for any one but they must be first exposed to training and orientation in phonetics first.
