11 - 12) have few exercises for pronunciation practice Second, all important English exams at schools as well as the entrance exam to universities are always in written form so most teachers as well as students have little motivation to teach and to learn pronunciation As a result, students are often shy and unconfident to speak in English So, what are the difficulties in teaching and learning? How to find suitable methods to teach pronunciation? What should teachers to teach pronunciation effectively? How should teachers make students become interested in learning pronunciation? They are burning questions for many teachers of English The answers to these questions will help teachers improve students‟ pronunciation knowledge and help them to make progress in communication For the above reasons, I decide to investigate “Difficulties in teaching and learning Pronunciation in Language Focus periods – English 12 and some solutions” AIMS OF THE STUDY This study mainly focused on the difficulties in teaching and learning pronunciation in Language Focus periods – English 12 and solutions to help them overcome these difficulties In order to achieve this aim, some objectives are posed for exploration as z 37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.33.44.55.54.78.655.43.22.2.4.55.2237.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.77.99.44.45.67.22.55.77.C.37.99.44.45.67.22.66 10 follows: - To find out the attitudes of teachers and learners towards in teaching and learning pronunciation at Thang Long Upper Secondary School - To find out the difficulties and the causes of difficulties in teaching and learning Pronunciation - To find out how pronunciation components are taught at Thang Long Upper Secondary School RESEARCH QUESTIONS The research tries to answer the following questions: What are the attitudes of teachers and students towards teaching and learning pronunciation?

12 PART 2: DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 1: THEORETICAL BACKGROUND 1.1 Definition of pronunciation The notion of "pronunciation" has been defined in different ways by many writers Ur (1996: 47) defines that "The concept of "pronunciation" may be said to include sounds of the language or phonology; stress and rhythm; intonation; combination of sounds; linkage of sounds" Dalton, (1994: 3) describes pronunciation in general term "as the production of significant sound in two senses First, sound is significant because it is used as part of a code of a particular language In this sense we can talk about pronunciation as the production and reception of sounds of speech Second, sound is significant because it is used to achieve meaning in contexts of use Here the code combines with other factors to make communication possible In this sense we can talk about pronunciation with reference to acts of speaking" In this paper, the author has no intention of pointing out which definition of pronunciation is the most precise but she only wishes to find an appropriate definition facilitating the understanding of pronunciation in language study Therefore, the definition of pronunciation proposed by Ur (1996) is adopted 1.2 The importance of teaching and learning pronunciation “A learner who constantly mispronounces a range of phonemes can be extremely difficult for a speaker from another language community to understand A consideration of learners‟ pronunciation errors and of how these can inhibit successful communication is a useful basis on which to assess why it is important to deal with pronunciation in the class” Gerald Kelly (2000:11) While saying about why it is important to teach pronunciation, Martin Hewings (2004:10) adds “Difficulties with pronunciation might mean that students fail to get their message across, even when the correct words are being used, or they might fail to understand what is said to z

13 them.” Sound is the core of the language so that is the reason why when teaching a language the first thing the teachers should is to let the learners have chances to explore to the sounds of that language Moreover, communicative approach is considered as the major language teaching in the twenty first century as what the learners really need after graduating is that they can communicate successfully in their work and their life That is the reason why pronunciation teaching has been paid more and more attention by all the teachers Pronunciation is as important as any other aspects of language like syntax and vocabulary Speech is much more than pronunciation of course, but speech is impossible without it Correct pronunciation, in fact, is considered to be a prerequisite to develop the speaking skill That is why teaching pronunciation should occupy an important place in the study of any language 1.3 The teacher’s roles and student’s roles in teaching and learning pronunciation Because of the importance of teaching pronunciation mentioned above, teachers play a key role in teaching and learning pronunciation Many authors share this idea and they all give out the similar roles of teacher's and students' in pronunciation practice However, in this study, the literature of Kenworthy (1987: 1-2) about the teacher's role was chosen The roles of the teacher and students can be derived in the following parts 1.3.1 The teacher's roles in teaching pronunciation 1.3.1.1 Helping students hear and perceive the model as exactly as possible Students often have a strong tendency to hear the sounds of English in terms of the sounds of their native language The teacher needs to check that their students are hearing sounds according to the appropriate categories and help them to develop new categories if necessary 1.3.1.2 Helping students make sounds intelligible Some sounds of English not occur in Vietnamese Therefore, the teacher has to give some hints which help them to produce the new sounds intelligibly z
