Hi and Hello!
I'm comeback again as you wish~
Today, I just want to share my journal summarize. it's also to finished my assignment.
Research
has observed students and English learners in Thailand. According to the
circumstances, in Thailand is a country that is very concerned in the economy
and as the global economy goes, English must be mastered by students and other
residents. Government and educators are trying to equalize the English language
skills. Even so, there are several factors mentioned in this study.
The first
is the pronunciation factor. Thai language is well known for its unique
pronunciation and it causes some words in English difficult to express. Second
is the original language factor. Learner is difficult to change source language
to target language. Thai native must be different from English native. Third
there is age. The oldest student is faster and more efficient in learning
English. But, there are also young learners who can be more than the oldest
students. Because when childhood, he ever learn it. Fourth is experience in
English. This factor is very helpful in having the ability to speak English. If
the learner ever lived in the English-speaking environment is very profitable
but on the contrary, students try to learn English and the environment is less
support, this will hamper. Fifth is factor Phonetic ability. According to Brown
(1992), phonetic ability is sometimes called the ability of phonetic coding.
That is the general views some people have better listening skills for foreign
languages than others. Therefore, they are able to discriminate between the
two sounds more accurate than others and ale to imitate sounds better. Sixth is
Attitude and identity. Other interesting factors that affect the acquisition
and improvement of target language pronunciation are the property of a person
attitudes toward target language speakers and the extent to which the language
ego is identified with the speakers. As Brown (1992) points out, students with
a positive attitude toward people who speak the target language tend to learn
more successful pronunciation. And the last factor is mentioned above confirm
the role of native language, age, experience in learning English, phonetic
ability, attitude and identity, and motivation and attention to good
pronunciation in learning a language as an important factor affecting student
pronunciation. However, there is a debate that goes on and on between scholars
and researchers from the context of learning and teaching different languages,
which suggests various thing version of implications and warnings in teaching
pronunciation.
So, I mentioned
above confirm the role of native language, age, experience in learning English,
phonetic ability, attitude and identity, and motivation and attention to good
pronunciation in learning a language as an important factor affecting student
pronunciation. However, there is a debate that goes on and on between scholars
and researchers from the context of learning and teaching different languages,
which suggests various things version of implications and warnings in teaching
pronunciation. This requires more focused studies more specifically in certain
contexts to support the main teachings of progressive language pedagogy.
