Pronunciation plays a crucial role in ensuring effective communication, yet many Indonesian EFL learners continue to struggle with accurately producing English vowel and consonant sounds. This study explores the segmental pronunciation errors commonly made by university students majoring in English education. Data were collected from 20 participants using a qualitative descriptive approach, including questionnaires and targeted phoneme identification tasks. The findings highlight the need for integrating focused phonetic training, International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) literacy, and technology-assisted pronunciation practice into English language teaching. By addressing both linguistic and affective factors, educators can help learners overcome pronunciation barriers and develop clearer, more confident spoken English.
