Abstract:

This Element explores ways in which language teachers, especially teachers of
English, can benefit from knowledge of phonetics. It also offers
recommendations for introducing and improving pronunciation teaching in the
classroom. While hoping that this Element is useful to instructors of all
languages, the majority of the examples comes from North American English
(NAE) and the English language classroom. At the same time, the Element
acknowledges that English language teaching is rather different from the
teaching of other languages, since nowadays, most interactions around the
world in English do not involve a native speaker, and use of English as a
lingua franca (ELF) has become widespread.  Teachers of English should be
aware that their students may not want to mimic all aspects of native-speaker
pronunciation; since some native-speaker patterns of speech, such as the
extensive simplification and omission of sounds may not be helpful in
enhancing intelligibility.
