All languages have a inventory of sounds in the sounds system. The

inventory of sounds is a particular combination of consonants and vowels. The inventory is

called segmental aspect of language. Native English-speaking teachers arent the

majority so, nonnative English teachers are up to 80% in the world. This fact is important

because we are outside of the inner circle people that English is their mother language.

Nonnative teachers need to know the appropriate models to teach pronunciation.

The nonnative teachers can to apply the intelligibility principle, when we have two

differents contexts: English-as-a-foreign-language and English serves as a lingua Franca.

The intelligibility principle consist, basically, in the teacher has a high knowledge about

variety of pronunciation and knows how to apply these knowledge in the classroom.

English teachers need to know the pronunciation (this is a fact) but, not only this. They

need to have a methodology; make questions for their students about grammar,

vocabulary, rules, etc.

The teachers knowledge consist in three steps(parts)

1stAll teachers must know everything about English sound system and have a effective

methodology for teach.

2ndTeachers need to be careful with their students. Analysis their behaviour, their

difficulty and make something to hit these problems and improve their English.3rdThe last thing the teachers need to know is when, how and who theyll teach.

Planning lessons, define a sequence how much time they will spend with these lessons

and be determinate to teach.

The principles of communicative language teaching (CLT) consist in teachers insert

their student in the process of learning, encouraging the students to ask, speak, make,

dialogues. Teachers must introduce the learners in the English Language. The

communicative framework suggests a division of pronunciation lesson into five phases.

1stDescription and analysis

This step show how the feature is produced and when it occurs within spoken discourse.

Description and analysis explain about the mechanic process of pronunciation (where the

sounds are produced, if the sound are voiceless or voiced, what are muscles involved in

the process). This lesson shows how discourse may color our choice of certain

pronunciation features.

2ndListening Discrimination

Researches about listening practice show that people who practice listening (has ability to

perceive the sound) can write better (the students ability to perceive the sound). In this

phase the students need to learn the sound and then, distinguish this sound when they

listen another similar sound. They need to know where is the stress in the word, number of

syllables, how to pronounce the word.

e.g. // box

/:/ horse

Some sounds, learners cant produce effectively, because they dont have these sounds in

their L1 so, the teachers need to be patient with their students.

3rdControlled Practice

If the teachers put the students to work in group, their can be themselves monitor and,

this way, help each other to study. This step is important because the students can

improve their pronounce with their classmates.

4thGuided Practice

Give some tasks for students and observe their ability to do these tasks. The teachers

need to keep the focus in pronunciation and develop tasks that work with this point.

e.g. Dialogues, conversations and stories.

5thCommunicative Practice

This is the last step and the teachers need to encourage their students to speak. Not only

to speak, but organize ideas, think about pronunciation, about grammar rules and then

speak. Teachers must to insert in the students discourse what they taught.

The feedback is important because when the learners receive a feedback they know

where their negatives and positives points are. The teachers need to be careful and

straight.
