Effective pronunciation teaching involves a combination of explicit instruction and communicative activities from "summary" of English Pronunciation Teaching and Research by Martha C. Pennington,Pamela Rogerson-Revell
Effective pronunciation teaching requires a multifaceted approach that combines explicit instruction with communicative activities. Explicit instruction involves providing learners with clear explanations, models, and opportunities to practice specific pronunciation features. This type of instruction helps learners understand the rules and patterns of pronunciation, enabling them to produce sounds accurately. Communicative activities, on the other hand, focus on using pronunciation in real-life contexts to promote fluency and communication skills. By engaging in meaningful interactions, learners can develop their ability to understand and be understood by others.
Explicit instruction plays a crucial role in pronunciation teaching by building learners' awareness of the sounds, stress patterns, and intonation of the target language. Through explicit instruction, learners can identify and correct pronunciation errors, develop strategies for improving their pronunciation, and gain confidence in their speaking abilities. Moreover, explicit instruction provides a foundation for learners to apply their knowledge in communicative activities, allowing them to practice and reinforce their pronunciation skills in authentic situations.
