    This research project, titled “The Effectiveness of Applying the ‘Spell and Pronounce’ APP through the Audio-lingual Approach and Drilling Techniques to Improve the Pronunciation of Phonemes /θ/ and /ð/ on Eighth Grade Students from 15 to 41 Years Old from the Quepos Night School during the First Quarter of 2025”, required to assess how using technology in conjunction with conventional language teaching techniques could improve Spanish-speaking learners' English pronunciation. The research topic was defined in Chapter 1 as students' consistent mispronunciation of the English phonemes /θ/ and /ð/, which impairs their general oral communication abilities. Because of the phonetic variations between the two languages, this problem is especially prevalent among L1 Spanish speakers. The theoretical and historical framework was introduced in Chapter 2, which also covered the Audio-lingual Approach, the application of drilling techniques, and the advantages of using mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) resources in EFL contexts, such as the "Spell and Pronounce" app.
