PART 1: INTRODUCTION

I, REASONS FOR CHOOSING THE RESEARCH

Despite the existence of thousands of languages all around the world

millions of people speak English as their mother tongue. Moreover, there are

millions of others who use English either as their second language or an

international language when communicating with people all around the world.

With the help of the developing technology, English has been playing an important

role in many sectors including medicine, engineering and education. Particularly,

as a developing country, Viet Nam needs to make use of this world- wide spoken

language in order to prove its international power. This can merely be based on the

efficiency of education. Therefore, English is a compulsory subject applied across

the whole higher educational system in Vietnam.

What do we learn English for? The answer is - for communication. What do

students learn English for? They learn English for the same reasons as we do. Our

job is to provide them with the basic skills they will need to practice the language

and to make sure that they have the basic knowledge and skills that they need for

future study. In my teaching practice at a secondary school I face to unintelligible

pronunciation of some students. Intelligible pronunciation is essential during a

listening process, clear and correct pronunciation makes a conversation more

comfortable for both the speaker and the listener and even helps to avoid

misunderstanding. Therefore, I decided to focus this thesis on pronunciation

teaching . The final thesis is not only aimed at pronunciation teaching process but

also at helping my students to be clearly and easily understood by others. The topic

is “Teaching students in grade 6 how to use phonetics transcriptions in learning

vocabulary ”.

II, AIMS OF THE RESEARCH

- To show some factors affecting students’ pronunciation.

- To show some mistakes students often have.

- To show the usefulness of the phonetic symbols.

- To show how to pronounce English sounds with the phonetic symbols.

- Give students confidence in learning and correcting their pronunciation.

transcription effectively in the class.
