| Abstract | ||||
| The present study delves into the effect of using self-monitoring strategy in enhancing pronunciation among EFL majors and explores if there is any relationship between students' self-esteem and their pronunciation performance. The participants of the study, totaling (52) were selected from the first year at the Faculty of Languages and Translation, Misr University for Science and Technology. Two instruments were required to fulfill the purpose of the study; the pronunciation test and the self-esteem scale. Results uncovered that self-monitoring strategy has significantly enhanced students’ pronunciation performance. Findings also revealed that students' self-esteem is correlated with their performance in pronunciation. It is recommended that self-monitoring should be accorded attention in the EFL pronunciation programs to ensure the highest level of accuracy, stressing providing electronic feedback to minimize probability of ego-threatening face- to-face interactions. | ||||
