%X ABSTRACT  Language is a system of communication. It is basically a means of both oral and written  communication. AS. Hornby said: “language is human and non-instinctive method of  communicating ideas, feeling and desire by means of system of sound and sound  symbols.” Additionally, Pronunciation has been often viewed as a skill in second  language learning that is most resistant to improve and therefore the least useful to learn  nowadays, pronunciation tends to be emphasized in language learning, an explicit  instruction in this aspect of language is considered as representing outmoded educational  practice. This research employed Quantitative One Group research design. It involves one  of the classes of the second semester of English education study program which consists of 50  students in Pakuan University Bogor, West Java as the sample for this research. The objective  was to measure there is any correlation between students‟ pronunciation ability and their listening  acievement. The finding was analyzed by using Pearson product moment calculation. The result  of this research showed mean score for pronunciation was 40.2, while listening test was  76.4. Additionally, the result was 10 and t-table with the df value of 27 at the significance  from the analysis the indicates that rxy is 0.021 with the degree of freedom (df=N-nr) is  48. The correlation 0.021 means very weak (average) correlated, indicating variables  which can be considered very weak (average) correlated. In the tabel of significance of  5% the value is 0.278. By comparing the values of rxy = 0.021 and rt = 0.278. The writer  makes an assumption of the hypothesis that rxy (0.021) is lower than rt (0.278) or rxy  (0.021) ˂ rt (0.278). This also meant there is no correlation between students‟  pronunciation ability and their listening achievement
