Yes, we used it for a number of years in an advanced level speaking
class in an IEP.  Typically the instructor only presented from it for
about 15 minutes or so in class at the start of the week, and then
learners worked with it on their own as part of their homework.  Tapes
were available in the lab connected with the campus library.  Late each
week we had a minor quiz to see how things were going.  This seemed to
work well for our purposes.

I was planning to use Clear Speech for North American English (published
by Cambridge) in the spring semester, but I'm a little concerned that it
hasn't come up yet in this thread. Has anyone used this program? If so,
is there anything about it I should be forewarned about? I'm not
promoting the text. I'm just wondering if I'll have cause to regret my
choice. Thanks for any advice.
Nancy

I find that "Pronunciation Pairs" by Cambridge University Press is a
wonderful book for teaching pronunciation and spelling. The author lists
the spelling variations for each sound at the end of the unit. It is
very easy to use. We have created pronunciation "workshops" and have
found it to be very successful. Jay
