Encourage students to practice pronunciation in varied contexts from "summary" of Teaching American English Pronunciation - Oxford Handbooks for Language Teachers by Susan Ehrlich,Peter Avery

To help students improve their pronunciation skills, it is crucial to encourage them to practice in a variety of different contexts. This can include practicing pronunciation in different settings such as in small groups, one-on-one with a partner, or even in front of the whole class. By practicing in varied contexts, students can become more comfortable and confident in using the sounds of American English. In addition to practicing in different settings, students should also practice pronouncing words in different contexts. This can involve using words in sentences, dialogues, or even in role-playing scenarios. By practicing pronunciation in various contexts, students can better understand how certain sounds are used and pronounced in different situations. Furthermore, students should be encouraged to practice pronunciation with different types of materials. This can include practicing with audio recordings, videos, or even pronunciation apps. By using a variety of materials, students can expose themselves to different accents, intonations, and speech patterns, which can help improve their overall pronunciation skills. It is also important for students to practice pronunciation in real-world situations. This can involve practicing pronunciation while ordering food at a restaurant, making a phone call, or giving a presentation. By practicing in real-world situations, students can apply their pronunciation skills in practical ways and gain valuable experience in communicating effectively in American English.

By practicing in different settings, using various materials, and applying their skills in real-world situations, students can become more confident and proficient in speaking American English with clarity and accuracy.
