| əbˈdʒektɪvz |Produce the English phonemes in a way that is comprehensible and acceptable to native and non-native speakers.
Formulate pedagogical criteria for the teaching of pronunciation in communicative contexts.
Apply strategies for learning and teaching pronunciation
Avoid misunderstandings (Wong, 1993).
First aspect of the language you notice when you listen to someone (Bygate, 1987, Gutiérrez, 2005).
One of the most difficult aspects of English to acquire, that needs constant assistance and monitoring from the teacher (Morley 1994; Fraser 2000).
More than teaching a set of patterns in the classroom, it implies the design of tasks that enhance students’ awareness on the use of learning strategies (Cárdenas, 2012).

More detailed and systematic listening, a critical process that provides an opportunity for learners to focus on their L2 production at the segment, syllable, word, phrase level. (Ingels, 2011)
Critical listening
Learners review their own transcripts, looking for nontarget features, and annotate (mark) corrections directly on the transcript in a contrasting color. During this transcript correction process, learners refer to a checklist to remind them of the pronunciation features they should monitor.
Annotation
Practice has been cited as an effective strategy and one of the more frequently used (Chamot & Kupper, 1989; Cohen et al., 1995; W. B. Dickerson, 1989; Sardegna, 2009).
Rehearsing corrections aloud
Transcription may be completed by the learner or the teacher, and learners may transcribe their own speech or that of NSs. (Clennell, 1999).
