Math, Science and Literature have been taught to ELLs in parts of the word.
This research studies on the subject of Math because it is universal to people more
than any others; its aims are to
examine whether teaching Math in English is
beneficial or not
, t
he teaching methods used by the Math teacher, the challenges of
teaching Math in English in 8M at DTD School and to find out the
recommendations to improve the situation of teaching Math in English in the future.
To fulfill these targets, three instruments
employed to collect data
were the
classroom observations, the questionnaire for the students and the interview for the
Math teacher.
The study was carried out and involved an American teacher of Math and 16
Vietnamese students in grade 8 at DTD School. S
tatistical analysis revealed that
most of the students initially struggled with mathematical vocabulary, cultural
differences in teachers’ teaching methods and students’ learning styles and
especially, their English limited proficiency. Gradually, they had
improvement in
their English competence and mathematical knowledge thanks to the Math teacher’s
relatively well
-
planned lessons. Several strategies which are recommended to deal
with the found challenges include differentiating specific instructions, teac
hing
mathematical
vocabulary
properly,
applying
technology,
enhancing
communications among students, parents, teacher and school and holding more
Math competitions to encourage students to study Math in English. |
