Give them many more sessions suppose if you have planned for vowels sound to be taught in a day at classroom provide them your voice files so that they can listen to it at home . This methodology has been effective in my training sessions and i would recommend you the same. May god bless you.

Give them exposure to sounds in day to day life so that that they will start picking up with words.. for eg: dog barks 'Bow' and then teach them the sound of 'ow' same will apply for cat 'meow'.. Give it a shot

Listening works best when learning a language. Pick one sound or, in case of vowels, a minimal pair, and make sentences with words using those sounds. Make funny rhymes or stories; these will pique the children's interests. For example: The green rabbit bit deep into the big sweet beet. On a personal note, I am against teaching young children sound association with letters. English is not a phonetic language and teaching it so to children confuses them more. It is better to make students aware that the letters of the alphabet have different sounds (c is k, s ch and sh) and that pronunciation is best learnt with listening to the correct sound for each word. As I say, listening is the key to learning any language. read less

(what is his age?)Then only the correct methodology can be adopted.u have to be very slow and steady in teaching and very precise.give as many creative things as u can. the struggling children should be always given visual clues along with practical applications.u cant make a child sit and teach. use wallhangings and posters while teaching.use small sentence strips and stick them on common things at house eg." this is a mat","take water" depending on age of kid. give more info then ill be able to tell u more. read less

Prepare notes of phonetic words and provide it to them. Tell them to speak and read it again and again. Tell them to speak it properly and try to make their pronunciation better.
