Abstract Pronunciation plays an indisputable role in communication; even more so in communication between native and non-native speakers of English. The goals for pronunciation teaching have shifted from accent-free or native-like pronunciation to comprehensibility and teaching practices aimed at non-native English learners vary and are often based on teachers’ opinions rather than research findings. The paper aims to present the current topics in twenty selected research papers dealing with pronunciation teaching (teaching practices in the English language classrooms, selected segmental and suprasegmental features). The analysed papers indicate that a teacher’s good theoretical background can raise students’ awareness and the overall performance of pronunciation phenomena, whether at the segmental or the suprasegmental level. Students may benefit from different strategies applied to pronunciation learning, but traditional teaching methods are still prevalent in the contemporary English language classroom. The contribution presents partial results of the research project KEGA 001TTU-4/2019.

向非母语英语学生进行语音教学的最新问题

摘要发音在交流中起着无可争议的作用。在以英语为母语的人和不以英语为母语的人之间的交流中，甚至更多。语音教学的目标已经从无口音或类似母语的语音转变为可理解性，针对非母语英语学习者的教学实践也有所不同，并且通常基于教师的观点而不是研究结果。本文旨在通过二十篇有关语音教学的研究论文（英语课堂教学实践，部分句段和节段特征）介绍当前的话题。经过分析的论文表明，教师的良好理论背景可以提高学生的认知度，并提高其发音现象的整体表现，无论是在分段教学还是在分段教学上。学生可能会受益于应用于发音学习的不同策略，但是传统的教学方法仍然在当代英语课堂中盛行。该文稿介绍了研究项目KEGA 001TTU-4 / 2019的部分结果。
