ABSTRACT

This paper studies two listening tests of Chinese novice learners on Korean obstruents and a Korean listening evaluation for the production data of Korean obstruents by the Chinese learners. Based on the result of the 12 Chinese subjects at the first experiment, they were divided into 3 groups to go through different teaching methods for pronunciation education. Group A went with the cognitive approach, Group B with the audio-lingual method and Group C with the task-based approach, respectively. Each group was set with different time scales by differential stages and curriculums, aligned by each method’s characteristic. After the experimental lessons, the second test which was the same as the first test at the procedure was run to find out the efficiency of the given teaching methods. In terms of statistics, the experimental results between groups did not bring out a meaningful result; however the improvement at the in-group results was meaningful. In particular a far more efficiency in Groups B and C with the audio-lingual method and the task-based approach than Group A based on the cognitive approach, was observed. The audio-lingual method and the task-based approach teaching method showed that they are the efficient methodologies for teaching Korean sounds to the beginner level of foreign learners.
