dc.descriptionspa:Este articulo resume un proyecto de investigación que presenta el análisis de implementar estrategias de pronunciación en estudiantes que necesitan mejorar su pronunciación. Los participantes fueron estudiantes de diferentes partes de Latino América y de niveles básicos, A1/A2 de acuerdo con el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para Lenguajes, quienes tomaron parte de clases en línea en el salón de clase virtual de Berlitz. Una metodología cualitativa y un método de investigación - acción fueron utilizados durante el estudio para describir una problemática existente y tratar de buscar una solución para las necesidades de los estudiantes en el salón de clase de inglés. En la etapa de diagnóstico, se implementaron encuestas a los estudiantes, entrevistas a los instructores y diario del investigador como instrumentos para recoger información durante las clases. La etapa de implementación se desarrolló usando un método cíclico que incluyó planeación, acción, observación y reflexión. Los resultados de este estudio demuestran que los estudiantes pueden pronunciar sonidos específicos, usar unión de palabras y reglas de acento en ingles de mejor manera utilizando ciertas estrategias en la clase de inglés, lo cual resulta en una mejora en su habilidad oral en términos de fluidez y precisión.
dc.descriptioneng:This Article summarizes a research project that presents the analysis of implementing pronunciation strategies for students who need to improve their pronunciation. Participants were students from different parts of Latin America and basic levels, A1/A2 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL), taking part in online classes at Berlitz Virtual Classroom (BVC). A Qualitative methodology and the action research methodology were used during the study to describe an existing issue and try to look for a solution to students' needs in the EFL classroom. In the diagnostic stage, students’ surveys, teachers’ interviews and teacher’s journals were implemented as instruments to collect information during the classes. The implementation stage took place making use of a cyclical method that included planning, acting, observing and reflecting. The results of this study show that learners can pronounce specific sounds, and use linking words and stress patterns in English better by using certain strategies in the EFL class, which results in fostering their oral production in terms of fluency and accuracy.
