Pronunciation can be a difficult thing both for teachers and students. For students it can be challenging because there is much subtlety in producing correct pronunciation, intonation and stress. Those things, while subtle, can change the meaning of words and sentences, and therefore are important in both communicating and comprehending meaning. Pronunciation can be challenging for teachers because little direct instruction is provided in this area for native speakers, and therefore it can seem unfamiliar and daunting for teachers to provide instruction in this area where they themselves have received little instruction. Understanding the basic guidelines of stress and intonation can help give guidance in this area. Knowing the phonemic alphabet and the mechanics of articulation are also important for a teacher to be able to provide solid instruction in the area of correct pronunciation for students.
