Description

In many ESL classes across the globe, English pronunciation is still not given enough attention. One of the primary reasons why it is overlooked is because there arent many pronunciation techniques accessible to instructors in the context of the school setting. The purpose of this research is to identify the problems in English pronunciation that learners experience as a result of the presence of Mother Tongue (MT) interference in their speech. In this article, the survey technique was used to gather information from a variety of sources, including interviews, personal conversations over the phone, and meetings. The report also included suggestions and recommendations for reducing the pronunciation difficulties that ESL learners encounter. There were a total of 102 samples gathered through Google forms in India. The findings of the study are discussed in detail in the interpretation.
