Abstract
“In the English teaching degree of the language faculty from BUAP, most students in the last semesters claim to have many difficulties with their pronunciation performance, and they need to improve the proper academic level in speaking skills. This situation worries students who are about to finish their degree because pronunciation is an essential element to communicating effectively. This descriptive-quantitative study aimed to identify the reasons that cause students have a negative perception of their pronunciation and that they cannot develop an excellent academic level of speaking skills. The result showed that most students claim that technological tools are essential to achieve excellent performance in pronunciation and speaking ability. Also, these students affirm that digital tools are helpful, but the main problem is that these resources are overpriced. Furthermore, all learners coincide in that they want to achieve excellent English pronunciation so as not to be afraid to speak in English during a certification English test or professional exam. On the other hand, a few students need help acquiring digital tools to practice their pronunciation and speaking skills, so they try to improve using traditional teaching methods”.
