Assessment of pronunciation should be ongoing and varied from "summary" of English Pronunciation Teaching and Research by Martha C. Pennington,Pamela Rogerson-Revell

When considering the assessment of pronunciation, it is crucial to recognize the importance of continuity and diversity in the evaluation process. Pronunciation assessment should not be limited to a single point in time, but rather should be an ongoing endeavor that occurs consistently throughout the language learning journey. By continuously monitoring and evaluating pronunciation, teachers can gain a more comprehensive understanding of students' progress and provide targeted feedback to support improvement. Furthermore, the assessment of pronunciation should encompass a range of methods and tools to ensure a well-rounded evaluation. Employing a variety of assessment techniques, such as tasks, tests, and technology, can offer a more holistic view of students' pronunciation skills and areas for development. This diversity in assessment approaches allows for a more nuanced understanding of individual strengths and weaknesses, enabling teachers to tailor their instruction accordingly. Moreover, the use of varied assessment measures can help promote student engagement and motivation in the learning process. By incorporating different assessment activities, such as peer feedback, self-assessment, and oral presentations, students are offered opportunities to actively participate in their own learning and take ownership of their pronunciation improvement. This active involvement can lead to increased confidence and proficiency in pronunciation skills.
