Thanks to technological development, there has been a remarkable leap in the application of artificial intelligence, especially in education. This paper examines the effectiveness of Chatbot Mission Fluent, an AI chatbot, in improving English pronunciation among vocational students in a Hanoi college. Sixty vocational students participate in an A1 English course hosted in a quasi-experimental research design. After the course, participants were interviewed and asked to complete a survey questionnaire to collect their feedback on the AI Chatbot. The experimental group showed notably better English pronunciation than the control group. This research aims to address the knowledge gap regarding the use of AI chatbots as a tool in vocational education. Through this approach, the potential of AI chatbots in improving English pronunciation is carefully explored and emphasized among vocational students. However, this paper also noticed some difficulties in applying and monetarily supporting Missionfluent throughout the process. Overall, this study focuses on the significance of incorporating innovative technologies into language learning programs and highlights the beneficial potential of AI Chatbots’ application in improving vocational students' English pronunciation while acknowledging AI Chatbots’ drawbacks which were discovered in the procedure.
