Abstract
In this talk, I would like to provide a state-of-the-art review on
a range of studies in L2 pronunciation teaching including my own work,
targeting to correspond to two major issues in the field. First, I will discuss
which pronunciation features are relevant (or irrelevant) to listenersf
successful understanding of L2 speech, and thus should be taught as a priority
(i.e., what-to-teach issues). Second,
I will introduce a series of quasi-experimental studies which have aimed to
find an optimal way to teach L2 pronunciation via a range of communicative
focus-on-form techniques, such as explicit instruction, focused tasks and
interactional feedback (i.e., how-to-teach
issues).
Bio
Kazuya Saito is Associate Professor in Applied Linguistics at
University College London, UK. His research interests include how second
language learners develop various dimensions of their speech in naturalistic
settings; and how instruction can help optimize such learning processes in
classroom contexts. For more details, see his personal website (http://kazuyasaito.net/).
