About this book
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: B+, University of Education, language: English, abstract: This research work is an educational material that highlights pronunciation; specifically, the pronunciation of English sounds. The research was undertaken for the purposes of improving the pronunciation difficulties of the voiced and voiceless interdentals in English language of the form 2A students of Assemblies of God SHS. As a vital component or aspect of the English language, pronunciation difficulties cuts across all linguistic borders due to one reason or the other and is therefore a major barrier to effective communication. I used the framework of an action research, against the background of carefully selected intervention strategies, the research work was successfully conducted and also yielded good results. It was discovered by the researcher that the difficulty that the form 2A students of Assemblies of God SHS was mainly attributed to the influence of the learners' first language (L1) and inadequate oral lessons alongside different cultural and societal background. The researcher therefore engaged the students with practical teaching techniques that will helped them do away with their cultural and social markings on pronunciation in English.
