Helping students to improve their pronunciation is very important. There really is very little point in students learning a new word, learning what it means and how to use it in a sentence, if no one understands them
when they say it because their pronunciation is very poor.

A learner’s pronunciation should be intelligible and unambiguous; good enough to
satisfy his/her goals and good enough to satisfy examination goals.

correcting errors; through specific awareness-raising activities and when
clarifying what a student has said.
