Abstract

The research project is aimed at studying and analysing the different factors that influence English pronunciation of third year students at the Foreign Language Department. For carrying it out the research, the team based their theoretical framework on important and relevant books, findings, studies of experts on the field for example: Judy Gilbert, Janet Goodwin, Barrera Pardo, and others. In order to achieve the objectives of this work, the research team designed two instruments: an oral interview to analyse segmental and suprasegmental aspects, and a set of sentences with specific vowels and consonants sounds for students to pronounce. The tests were administered, recorded and analysed by professional TEFL instructors. The results are represented in graphics with their own analysis and then the conclusions and recommendations are presented.
