ENHANCING NON-NATIVE PROSPECTIVE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHERSâ COMPETENCY IN SENTENTIAL STRESS PATTERNS IN ENGLISH

The aim of this study is to investigate a group of prospective English language teachersâ competency as to the application of sentential stress patterns in English prior to their graduation from an English Language Teaching (ELT) department in the Turkish context. In the study fifty senior pre-service students completed a self-perception questionnaire, and nine of them received training on sentential stress patterns in English for four weeks. Pre-study self-perception questionnaire results showed that prospective English language teachers in this particular context needed to learn more about sentential stress patterns in English. The experimental study which was conducted to this end with a group of nine pre-service teachers of English proved positive contributions to their competency in sentential stress patterns in English.
