| Summary: | This research aimed at using simulation technique to improve speaking skills
in English for specific purposes for students majoring in Hotel Management.
It was an action research study with both qualitative and quantitative data
collected from second-year students majoring in Hotel Management at a
college in Hanoi. The qualitative data were collected by delivering
questionnaires, interviewing the students. Meanwhile, the quantitative data
were collected through assessing the students‟ speaking performance by
comparing the results of the pre-test and the post-test. The procedure of this
action research consisted of initiation, preliminary investigation, hypothesis,
intervention, evaluation, and dissemination.
The research has shown that using simulation technique could successfully
improve the students‟ speaking competence in general and in some important
aspects related to speaking skills including fluency, vocabulary and
pronunciation. Besides, difficulties faced by students in using simulations are
also recognized. |
