Introduction
Pronunciation has been the last field studied referring to languages and it has become a
challenge to teach in order to acquire a similar pronunciation to native-speakers. Many factors
affect learning this specific feature: the learner, age, attitude, previous instruction and exposure
to the language, among others.
In order to help the students to develop this skill and the confidence needed to face English
environments or real life situations, some guides, activities and techniques have been added in
this mini guide. Teaching rules, giving feedback and make students practice will help them to
develop their ability to self-correct / self-monitor the target pronunciation. This skill should be
taught phase to phase to get better results in short and long term.
