Dengan kata lain, seseorang mungkin akan memiliki interpretasi yang berbeda terhadap pesan yang disampaikan dikarenakan pengucapan kata yang tidak sesuai. Dalam komunikasi bahasa Inggris, permasalahan pengucapan yang sering muncul adalah adanya ketidakteraturan pengucapan huruf dimana apa yang diucapkan seringkali tidak sesuai dengan apa yang tertulis. Hal ini tentu saja menjadi kendala dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di sekolah. Penggunaan kamus Oxford bisa menjadi salah satu pilihan untuk mengatasi permasalahan pengucapan kata dengan yang dialami siswa. Berbeda dengan kamus yang sering dipakai pleh siswa, kamus Oxford berisi konten yang seluruhnya dalam bahasa Inggris. Hal ini memberikan tantangan tersendiri kepada siswa. Selain itu, siswa juga harus mengenal simbol phonetik jika ingin mampu mengucapakan kata yang ada di dalamnya secara akurat. Kegiatan IbM ini ditujukan untuk memperkenalkan kamus Oxford serta melatih siswa untuk belajar membaca simbol phonetik yang merupakan acuan dalam pengucapan kata yang tepat dalam Bahasa Inggris. Selama kegiatan pelatihan, siswa menunjukkan antusiasme yang baik dan kegiatan pelatihan dapat berjalan dengan lancar. Diharapkan kedepannya siswa akan menjadi lebih terbiasa dalam menggunakan kamus oxford dan kesalahan pengucapan kata dapat dihindari.
