This study begins with a research study about the main aspects which influence pronunciation of a second language such as age, attitude, aptitude, motivation, personality, learning styles and native language influences. In order to have a better idea of how the English phonological system works, we explain and describe the different aspects sucha as segmental and suprasegmental features that will help us to get to know student´s pronunciation problems. Afterwards, we define what multiple intelligences are, their classification and the description of characteristics which identify each one and also, how this theory can be applied in an EFL classroom in order to improve students´pronunciation. Based on the study and a pronunciation pretest, we identify both: Students´weaknesses in certain phonemes as well as their predominant multiple intelligences. We create and adapt activities to improve strudents´pronunciation problems exploiting their multiple intelligence.
