The purpose of this study was to measure the efficiency of teaching pronunciation by the "Individual Card Approach" developed by the author. It was hypothesized that (1) this approach is effective in improving learners' pronunciation, and (2) improvement in pronunciation first occurs in the most formal task before it is carried over to less formal tasks, and (3) this approach enhances learners' concern about their pronunciation, and (4) it does not have a negative effect on learners' fluency in free speech. Forty Japanese EFL learners received the treatment by this approach for two months. Accuracy rate of subjects' /r/ was measured before, during, and after the treatment. A questionnaire was conducted to explore changes in subjects' concern about their pronunciation. Hypotheses (1) and (3) were supported, whereas hypotheses (2) and (4) were not confirmed. Implications of these results are discussed.
