4_Regarding finding the suitable and effective teaching solutions for these errors, peresentation-pactice-production (ppp) method is used .After all phonemes are presented and described how to be pronounced, a focus on those which cause confusion takes place. Firstly, discrimination technique is used by writing both phonemes /b/,/p/on the board and I would ask the students to pronounce the phoneme /b/ first and then, I take a piece of paper and hold it to face my lips, I say the sound and ask the students to focus on what happens to the paper while I am producing the sound. Normally ,their response would be that nothing happens and they are right because, no air is exploded while producing /b/sound .Then, the same procedure is repeated with

Underhill(2013)explains that learning pronunciation is similar to learning a new type of dance which involves different muscular movements from those of the type of dance which a person’s muscles are familiar with . Therefore, in learning pronunciation , head and muscles should be connected to know the position of the muscles to make them move in order to make the sounds and that movement makes the sound seen. Underhill with Macmillan education ElT(2011) demonstrates in his video how to teach pronunciation silently and he gives an example of that deaf people how they can understand by seeing physical movements .However ,it is questionable whether Underhill’s theory considers all people of different physical disabilities or not. Shockingly ,Krashen and Trell(1983)argues that In the early stages of learning a language, pronunciation should not be practiced intensively in class .Whereas , Allen and Vallette (1977)report that there is a wide agreement among teachers on the necessity of teaching pronunciation early to get the correct pronunciation and speech early and to avoid any errors that might occur in the future when it becomes too late to
