The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of perceptual training of American English front vowel sounds /i, I, ε, æ/ on the production by comparing two teaching methods: perceptual training and audiolingual method. Subjects were 10 students enrolled in a language program at Arizona. They were randomly assigned into an experimental and a control group. The perception and production test were conducted to assess the subjects’ development of accuracy, and one hour and half training sessions are carried out with no explicit production practice for the experimental group and with the audiolingual teaching method for the control group for a total period of three weeks. The results for the post-test revealed that there was no significant difference between the groups. However, it should be emphasized that the experimental group, who went through the perceptual training without being forced to produce, resulted in better improvement both in perception and production in comparison to the control group when observed pre and post test. In addition, the results revealed that there is a positive co-relation between perception and production.
