Teaching and Assessing Young EFL Learners’ 
Pronunciation

Several factors are thought to predominantly a

ect target language 
pronunciation: mother tongue interference, students’ age, amount of ex-
posure, phonetic ability and certain a

ective factors such as motivation 
and personality. However, the in
fl
uence of the afore mentioned factors 
may be reduced by the implementation of an adequate teaching approach 
in a systematically applied pronunciation instruction.
The present study hence aims at investigating the e

ect of the appli-
cation of various carefully selected techniques of the two distinct teaching 
approaches, Communicative Language Learning and Kagan’s version of 
Cooperative Language Learning, in enhancing young Serbian EFL learn-
ers’ pronunciation of allegedly problematic sounds such as interdental 
fricatives /ð/, /
θ
/ and approximants /r/ and /w/. In order to answer the 
proposed research questions we conducted an experiment in which we 
applied the afore mentioned techniques consistently for three months 
during the private English lessons to twelve nine–year–olds, who have 
been learning English for three years. We analysed the 
fi
ndings of pre–test 
and post–test examinations, and the results show positive e

ects in favour 
of Kagan’s Structures. Based on the 
fi
ndings of the conducted investiga-
tion, we provide suggestions to teachers for the refreshment of the slightly 
marginalized segment of EFL teaching, i.e. the almost entirely neglected 
phonetic instruction. We further explore the possibilities for the assess-
ment of pronunciation by examining the teachers’ views regarding which 
applied approach facilitated more appropriate evaluation of the learners’ 
pronunciation of target sounds. The teachers participating in the study 
were asked to form rubrics for the assessment of pronunciation in both 
approaches and we later interviewed them in order to obtain required in-
formation.
