INTRODUCTION
Teaching is process which happens between teacher and students to get point.
This point is to understand about the material.
Teaching English is one of processes to get knowledge in mastering English.
Teaching English involves four language skills.

In teaching and learning language, there are four aspects that support four language skills above such as:
Someone who wants able to speak English should begin to learn English from kindergarten and continue to higher level.
Now in this research the writer are going to discuss teaching English in the junior high Sri Arfani.
Rini Martiwi and Oldea Br Karo Sekali Improving English pronunciation skill through thumbelina and pinocchio fairy tales The students of junior high school learn English for the first time so they just learn the simple English pattern including vocabulary.
Reading is the third of the four language skills, which are: Listening.
Speaking.
Reading, and Writing.
Reading is very important in learning English, a great effort has been given to develop reading skill toward students as the Reading requires the skill of speaking.
So, it is to avoid mistakes during teaching and certainly, it must be having the proper way to pronounce or spell it.
Before reading then, the pronunciation is the way to say a word or the way in which a language is usually spoken.
In common students feel difficult to pronounce words in English.
has the difference between intonation and In pronouncing English word, there are many words with same writing or It will make confused to read with a good pronunciation.
One of media usually use for basic English learners is teaching by Pinocchio and Thumbelina Fairy Tale.
Students at this age tend to learn visually to make it easier to remember the vocabulary.
In this research the writer decides to use tales in teaching pronunciation.
A tales paints a thousand words to get great way of improving English, especially if the students are a visual learner.
The student can describe what is happening in the story in tales.
Through this way the students can pronoun the words In a previous research conducted by Yousef Bani Ahmad .
about the problems and strategies in solving incorrect pronunciation on English education student.
Results showed English pronunciation problems were caused by the difference of language system between English and Bahasa, students had a lack of mastery of consonant and vowel in accordance with international Phonetics alphabet, the incompatibility of the placement place and manner of articulation.
Strategies to overcome the problems of English pronunciation learning by using audio-visual media, the lecturer gave oral corrective feedback for those students who got the errors in pronunciation, students used the mobile phone application in supporting individually pronunciation learning and students had a lot of practicing in reading English texts were provided by lecturer.
There are many problems in teaching and it will never end completely although many attempts have been done to solve them.
According to the problem statement the writer focuses on the Teaching English Pronunciation through Pinocchio and Thumbelina Fairy Tales (A Field Research at SMPS PGRI Pondokgede.
Teaching English pronunciation in junior high school is difficult because people know that most of children are still difficult to speak and memorize English vocabulary.
The teacher should know any factors or media influence the process of teaching, such as the Pinocchio and Thumbelina Fairy Tales as media for the students.
Teachers have to show ability to make students interested in English.
Based on the background of the problems described above the problem under study as How does Pinocchio and Thumbelina Fairy Tales influence student achievement in teaching pronountion at SMPS PGRI Pondokgede? What is the studentsAo difficulty of learning English pronunciation at SMPS PGRI Pondokgede? Teaching Pronunciation Teaching pronunciation is very important at By teaching pronunciation, the students can know how to pronounce the word.
The students also need to push and encourage to increase their ability in two aspects, they are pronouncing and reading skill.
According to Fraser in (Varasarin, 2.
concluded that most ESL teachers agree that explicit AuPronunciation teaching is an essential part of language courses and confidence with pronunciation allows learners to interact with native speakers, which are essential for all aspects of their linguistic developmentAy.
As the expert said, it is important to teaching pronunciation, so that it is able communicate with native speakers and good pronounce will make confident to say.
Based on Afshari and Ketabi in (Iannuzzi, 2.
AuThe teaching of pronunciation which has found its way into the classroom has traditionally been focused on specific linguistic competencies, p-ISSN 2540-8216, e-ISSN 2654-3745 https://journal.

Ay.
tells that teaching pronunciation focus on linguistic like phonemes.
Teaching pronunciation in the classroom must be using media or supported learning, as like: story or picture and so on.
Harmer .
argues that: Teaching pronunciation not only makes students aware of different sounds and sound features .
nd what these mea.
, but also can improve their speaking He also believes that concentrating on sounds, showing where they are made in the mouth, making students aware where words should be stresses-all these things give them extra information about spoken English and help them achieve the goal of improved comprehension and It shares about teaching pronunciation not just make students know the spelling of the words, but increase their speaking skills and they will know where they should be stressing or say the word harder the Kelly in (Rini, 2.
who states that AuIt is important to include pronunciation teaching in the classroom because learnersAo errors can cause communicationAy It means that teaching pronunciation is the essential thing, because if student pronounces well, it must be having good communication moment.
However, it will make the misunderstanding to say the wrong word.
Mentioned by Butler-Pascoe and Wiburgin (Ahmad, 2.
:The goals of teaching pronunciation are to develop English that is easy to understand and not confusing to the listeners, develop English that meets personsAo needs and that results in communicative competence, help learners feel more comfortable in using English, develop a positive self-awareness as non-native speakers in oral communication, develop speech consciousness, personal speech monitoring skills and speech adjustment strategies that help learners develop in and out of the class.
It tells that teaching pronunciation are develop to teach the learners how to pronounce well, because in English there is there is word with same pronounce that can make confuse or misunderstanding if the speakers not pronounce well.
To be confident to use English in and out of the class is a thing to do.
Based on the theory above, the writer notes that teaching pronunciation intends to make the learners can speak English well.
It needs to study and try to speak English well, by watching English movie, sing a song, read the fairy tale and so on.
