As these are intermediate students, there's a chance the delayed error correction will be focused on pronunciation. In his book, Kelly points out that linking is often a signal for less experiences speakers. If this is a consistent error, having visual aids for linking will be beneficial at the end of the lesson. Refer to the TLAS for these examples
