Intonation is a main part of English prosody and it may be true that intonation is more important than the stress and pronunciation of each word in communicating with others. Two English Visual Speech Training System were installed at Hokuriku University last April. Now it became possible to carry out the visual feedback instruction of intonation and pronunciation of minimal contrast of vowel phonemes to students quite effectively and efficiently. It seems to me that the intonation analysis part of the Speech Training System has great power in helping Japanese students in overcoming the flat intonations which are commonly found among them. By making a graph of intonation on TV screen, this flat intonation can be easily compared to the sharply rising and falling of the model voice. This Speech Training System is very helpful in improving English pronunciation of Japanese students. This paper reports both great potential and some problems of the Speech Training System based upon the data collected through individual teaching of pronunciation.
