Teaching Pronunciation: Is Explicit Phonetics Instruction Beneficial For Fl Learners?, Elizabeth M. Kissling
Teaching Pronunciation: Is Explicit Phonetics Instruction Beneficial For Fl Learners?, Elizabeth M. Kissling
Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications
Pronunciation instruction has been shown to improve learners’ L2 accent in some, though certainly not all, cases.
