Which choice is more natural for you?
I want to improve my pronunciation (1. in / 2. of) English.
I want to improve my pronunciation (1. in / 2. of) English.

Out of the two, you could say “I want to improve my pronunciation in English”, as this means in English as a language. “Of English” could work as well, but you usually use it when referring to specific words (e.g. “I want to improve my pronunciation of [word]”).
I think the more natural alternative would actually be “I want to improve my English pronunciation”, and this phrase is more commonly used.
Feel free to ask more questions if it doesn’t make sense! I hope this helps!!

Thanks for your kind answer!
I took survey on Twitter to my Japanese followers about this question and "in" to "of" ratio was 35% to 65%. As this show, we, Japanese tend to use "of" for any other more natural choice.
And I also found "my English pronunciation" is more natural after I tweeted the survey, but I want to know which of in and of is more natural for you natives, so I asked to you!
Besides, your icon is very nice :)
