Abstract

This ethnographic and qualitative research (ANDRÉ, 2003) aims to investigate the means by which the pronunciation of the English language is focused on by two teachers during their classes at a private language school in the city of Campina Grande (PB). The instruments used for data collection involve semi-structured interviews, observation and audio-recording of classes and field notes. The results obtained in this study indicate that the two participants taught the English pronunciation by using mostly the technique referred to as listen and imitate, as presented by Celce-Murcia, Brinton and Goodwin (2010), which is based on an implicit approach and depends on the ability of learners to listen and imitate the sounds of English as an L2.
