Abstract
This article investigates the common difficulties Uzbek learners encounter when acquiring English pronunciation and proposes effective teaching strategies to overcome these challenges. The research focuses on phonetic contrasts between Uzbek and English, learner errors, and pedagogical interventions that enhance pronunciation skills. Findings suggest that a combination of targeted phonetic exercises, interactive activities, and technological tools significantly improves learners’ pronunciation accuracy and confidence.
