This article explores the effectiveness of interactive methods in teaching English pronunciation within modern language classrooms. It discusses how activities such as role-play, pair work, pronunciation games, minimal pair drills, shadowing, and digital technologies contribute to the development of segmental and suprasegmental phonetic features. The findings demonstrate that interactive approaches increase learner motivation, reduce speaking anxiety, enhance retention, and improve pronunciation accuracy in authentic communication contexts.
