In this unit, we examined how to teach pronunciation and Phonology in the classroom. It was mentioned that teachers often will avoid teaching proper pronunciation in their classrooms as they either feel that the student will develop their own way of speaking or they may even feel the task too daunting to discuss (i.e. there are so many rules and exceptions to pronunciation the teacher may feel it best for their sake or for the class' sake to skip teaching it). Word pronunciation is important for an English learner to study as it gives life to the student's vocabulary knowing that their feelings are being properly portrayed. Phonology and learning the Phonemic alphabet can be beneficial to student as well as this alphabet provides the exact blueprint a student must follow if they want to pronounce a word correctly.
