Abstract

This review critiques Červinková Poesová and Klára Uličná’s e-book Becoming a Pronunciation teacher. It offers an overview and critical interpretation of the content, together with a display of its convenience as a practical handbook for EFL/ESL teachers and researchers of second language pronunciation instruction. The review will evaluate the authors’ approach as well as its effectiveness as a useful tool to enhance pronunciation teaching in EFL/ESL classrooms.
