a class where there are students with the lowest level among 323 students of grade 12 at Thach Thanh high school In other words , my main research subjects are 103 students with low level of English IV RESEARCH METHODS The methods I have used: Research methodology built on theoretical basis Scientific research method: A method of observing the object a systematic way to gather information There are two scientific observers are observing direct and indirect observations Methods of investigation: A method of teachers surveyed audience at Thach Thanh high school to detect characteristics and learning styles, ability to post Experimental methods: The teacher actively impacts on students and the course of the student attendance to follow objectives, their expectation Methods of analysis summed up the experience: As a research methodology and review the practical achievements to draw conclusions useful for practice B CONTENT INITIATIVE EXPERIENCE I THEORETICAL BASIS OF THE PROBLEM The initiative is theoretically based on the Matrix and the illustration test from the Ministry of Education and Training introduced in late March, 2021 which I enclose in THE APPENDIX II STATE OF THE MATTER RESEARCH The fact that teachers and students spend much time on teaching and learning English,especially revising for the graduation exam cannot be denied Yet the results are not high, even English is ranked last according to the survey from MOE ( 4,57 on average) And the average mark of Thanh Hoa province and Thach Thanh high school is respective 3,82 and 3,71 UAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com After a period time of teaching and learning, Thach Thanh high school had a mock test for all grade 12 students in late December and the results of English is terrible , on average , about 3,46 and here are the marks of my three classes: 12 A1, 12A4, 12 A8 Order Class 12 A1 12A4 12A3 As can be seen from the table above, the results are not good I myself are not so surprised at the results because of some following reasons: - The numbers of students who can get mark and higher is low - The majority of students canot remember the knowlegde The rest choose the answer at random without looking at the paper test To make the situation better, I have applied some techniques in teaching my students in the classes and I am happy that my students make a lot progress, and importantly, they become interested in learning and spending more time to fullfil my assignments III IMPLEMENTING MEASURES Help students be clear about the knowledge of the 2021 graduation exam by introducing and interpreting carefully the matrix and the illustration test from MOET 1.1- Introduce the matrix 1.2- Introduce the illustration test from the Ministry of Education and Training introduced in late March 2.Guide students how to learn modules and skills effectively I always bear in mind that my agents are neither good nor hard-working so it is crucial that I teach carefully the cogniative knowledge and assign the tasks for them regularly Only by this way can these students remember the lesson well In each class, My sole purpose is how to guide students to get mark from to and here are details of my curricula 2.1- Teach basic knowledge LESSON 1- PRONUNCIATION Pronounce words ending in " ed" + /t/: /s/, /tʃ/, /ʃ/, /k/, /p/, /f/ + /id/: /t/ /d/ + /d/: the rest UAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 2.Pronounce words ending in " s" + /s/: -s /p/, k/, /f/, /θ/, /t/ + /ɪz/: -s là: ch, sh, ss, x, ge, ce, se + /z/: the rest Pronounce vowels Mark the letter A, B, c, or D to indicate the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation in each of the following questions Question 1: A final Question 2: A Question 3: A eject Question 4: A produc Question 5: A alien Question 6: A Question 7: A missed Question 8: A need LESSON 2- STRESS Rules: Stress on 2-syllable words -Verbs: mostly stress on the 2nd syllable EXCEPT: words ending in er,or,en,el,ow -
