English is taught in schools to equip students with the ability to communicate in English, both orally and in writing. In the context of English language teaching, mastering pronunciation is a fundamental requirement for the competence of elementary school English teachers. However, many teachers still face difficulties in this aspect due to limited training and mentoring. The available competency development programs tend not to specifically integrate the segmental and suprasegmental aspects required by elementary school English teachers. Therefore, this program offers training and mentoring that combines the mastery of vowel and consonant sounds with suprasegmental aspects. This activity aimed to provide training and mentoring based on modeling and drilling to improve the pronunciation skills of elementary school English teachers in Kota Subdistrict, Kudus. The training covered vowel and consonant sounds, word stress, sentence stress, and intonation. The activity was conducted through a preliminary survey, two training sessions, and an evaluation. The results showed that the teachers' pronunciation skills improved after participating in the training. This indicates that training which integrates segmental and suprasegmental aspects can improve the competence of elementary school English teachers and provide practical benefits to partner teachers that can be implemented in classroom learning.
