Mar na Huhtamäki¹ & Elisabeth Ze erholm² ¹Helsingfors universitet, ²Stockholms universitet U alets plats i undervisningen av svenska som andraspråk This is a case study about pronuncia on teaching in Swedish as a second language. The aim of this study is to compare pronuncia on teaching for adults in Finland and Sweden. Data were gathered via interviews with eight teachers and observa ons of eight Swedish classes. The theore cal framework is language teacher cogni on, which implies that we compare what teachers say with what they actually do in the classrooms. The study shows that teachers in both countries find pronuncia on a central field of Swedish teaching. However, they think that they lack methods for pronuncia on teaching. Most of the pronuncia on teaching observed is implicit and integrated in the teaching of other elements, such as vocabulary and grammar. In Sweden, there were more examples of explicit pronuncia on teaching than in Finland. In Finland, the minority posi on of Swedish implies certain challenges for teaching pronuncia on and other aspects of the language. Overall, there was much correspondence between the interviews and the observed classes in the two countries.
