[Podcast] Teacher education and Vietnamese EFL teachers’ pronunciation teaching

07 Aug 2024

This study investigates the extent to which English as a foreign language teacher education prepares teachers to teach pronunciation through Vietnamese secondary EFL teachers’ narratives of their training experiences and how the teachers teach pronunciation in their English classes. Results show that the teachers received insufficient training in pronunciation pedagogy but demonstrated a high level of confidence in teaching English pronunciation. However, their pronunciation teaching centered on listen-and-repeat activities and/or error correction due largely to the nature of testing and assessment practices at their schools. The teachers further articulated beliefs about how teacher education in Vietnam could prepare EFL teachers, such that it needs to include more coverage of pronunciation practice and pedagogy to prepare future secondary EFL teachers to teach English pronunciation competently after graduation.
