APPENDIX 44 oi m z at nh z m co l gm @ an Lu n va ac th si The things we best in life are the things we enjoy doing If students aren't having fun learning English, they are not studying the right way They can be a serious student who has fun at the same time Students should make up their own rewards program to give themselves incentives to stay on task Improve learning methods a, Practicing speaking with others as much as possible, try to practice in standard talk situations Students should join an English club or an organization that will help them practice speaking English more b, Practice talking alone Students can come up with a specific topic and practice on their own, then ask more questions and answers lu c, Students should increase their vocabulary to be able to talk about a an n va variety of topics Spend more time and patience to improve vocabulary, a good d, Change intonation of voice Listening to native speakers speak English, gh tn to vocabulary background

interested, kind or cruel Listen to how their intonation affects the message they d are conveying, then try to change intonation when speaking lu va an e, Students should put extra emphasis on the important parts being talked about English is a rhythmic language, which means that in any sentence, some u nf ll words are emphasized to show the importance of the message m oi f, To improve English speaking skill, students should find a friend to z at nh practice learning English with, helping each other to improve They will be more motivated and not bored z gm @ g, Students should train grammar skills, record it when speaking and try l to find grammatical errors Learn from mistakes and try again m co h, Record while speaking, check volume and speed When students speak should keep in mind in conversations is to stop when asked n va 32 an Lu too fast, it will be difficult for others to understand One difficult thing students ac th si Work in pairs or groups For learning to speak English, working in pairs or groups is also considered an effective way of learning The practice of group discussion in parallel with skill development will be really helpful and improve students' English communication ability If each student participating in the group follows the rules set by the group with the common goal of growing together, they will all achieve their learning goals The benefits of learning to speak English in pairs or in groups: a, Raising awareness and self-discipline for students Working in pairs or groups allows each member to participate actively lu and responsibly Reading comprehension and preparing materials before each an n va lesson according to a certain time limit will create great effects for reviewing old tn to knowledge and absorbing new knowledge, which is very important for learning to speak English When they are in a group and are responsible for completing gh p ie assignments with other members, students will be really serious about learning w about the topic, brainstorming ideas and discussing to find the best arrangement oa nl for each assigned topic d b, Create opportunities for members to share ideas, solve problems and va an lu help each other Once paired as a pair or a group, members can freely share ideas and u nf ll advice to each other They can also solve any problem that is difficult to m oi alone Moreover, when explaining a concept to another member, it is also z at nh deepening that knowledge into one's own memory Explaining clearly and fluently in front of a group of people also trains each student to speak in front of z m co a, Learn to speak through online websites l Learn to speak through the internet gm @ a crowd and increases their confidence an Lu Nowadays, the internet has a huge influence on our lives For the first year English major, the Internet can help them learn to speak English n va 33 ac th si effectively At any time, students can learn directly through online websites that teach English, especially speaking skills It is very convenient for them to learn new words, pronunciation, presentation skills through interesting topics Through the internet, students can download many materials related to English speaking practice to improve their skills b, Learn to speak through English songs The Internet includes a huge of English resources Students can learn from English songs, English music, even English poems Students can learn from English lyrics by downloading the lyrics to their phones or computers and listening to the song several times, then reading the lyrics carefully and trying to lu repeat them on their own They can find in the lyrics some simple sentence an n va structure, even more special structure That will help students improve both their c, Learn to speak through English movies gh tn to speaking and grammar skills p ie Sometimes, students can find some English movies to watch and learn w from these movies They will be relaxed but still be able to learn These movies oa nl have interesting sounds, pictures and information so students won't get bored d On the contrary, they really pay attention to the details and lines in the movie, lu va an thereby learning to speak English naturally It is clear that when students learn according to their interests, their speaking will improve faster and their u nf ll vocabulary will also increase very quickly One advice is that students should m oi follow the character's lines, study their intonation, it will help students to z at nh improve their speaking skills a lot d, Learn to speak through English video z gm @ TV show and video allow students to tap into the visual essentials of face- l to-face communication A good way to learn to speak is to watch TV shows that m co involve a group of people having a discussion Notice things, such as how an Lu speakers indicate that they want to say next or are about to end what they are n va 34 ac th si saying Recognizing these 'turnaround' signals will make it easier to engage in English conversations Self-Talking English Self-talk English is considered to be one of the most effective ways that a lot of students have been doing during their university studies to practice English It is a common problem that the number of students in each class is quite large, so there may not be enough time for each student to have a chance to practice their speaking skills Therefore, students can only practice at home but finding a partner to practice with is another problem In this case, self-talk seems effective and easy to Besides, for some students who are shy or lack lu confidence, this strategy is totally recommended as they can then push an n va themselves to speak without fear of making mistakes or being embarrassed Talk tn to about anything and everything Do it in the privacy of their own home If students can't this at first, they should try reading out loud until they feel gh p ie comfortable hearing their own voice in English Interestingly, a statistic has w shown that 93% of professors use self-talk when learning a second language and oa nl this strategy has received many positive feedbacks from professors The practice d step of this method is very simple as you are free to say whatever you like to lu va an yourself When learners practice speaking on their own, it can help them achieve great fluency and memorization u nf ll Join the English club oi m a, Definition z at nh English Club is a gathering of people with the same passion and interest in English Each English club has its own goals and directions Here, members z gm @ can organize appropriate programs of activities, towards the common purpose of n va 35 an Lu b, Benefits of joining an English club m co reasonable for each participating member l the club The time will be agreed by the members themselves to ensure ac th si The English club was created as one of the very effective English learning solutions Help members have the opportunity to practice English communication in order to improve each person's listening and speaking ability Members will become more confident when they practice at English clubs, which leads to positive friends and relationships Since then, members not only improve their speaking ability but also give them confidence when communicating in English Feel free to come up with creative ideas to help improve everyone's English ability Here, members will experience using English together to play lu games, play plays, debates, presentations, and interviews, helping them to make an n va the most of your knowledge but not under great pressure tn to Some clubs have foreign lecturers participating to guide them on pronunciation and grammar in detail, directly correcting mistakes for each gh p ie person w Join the online forum on practicing speaking English oa nl Students often learn English speaking by listening to music, watching d movies or available English-taught programs But sometimes they feel that this lu va an learning is too passive and have many difficulties if they want to find study materials So students should try to participate in English speaking forums, the u nf ll interaction between members, a rich repository of documents and many useful m oi tips will definitely help them conquer this global language z at nh Benefits of joining an English speaking forum: a, Free for all users z gm @ This is the best advantage of English forums Your participation here is l completely free and free, does not require any fees Here, learners can download m co loads of useful materials, participate in free discussions and ask questions to an Lu anyone b, Easy and convenient n va 36 ac th si All users just need a computer or phone connected to the internet can participate Just a few simple steps to register and you can become a member of the English forum with many benifits in learning English c, Plentiful material If students need to find useful material, the archives shared by members on English speaking forums are a treasure for them These are all documents shared by predecessors, so they are often highly appreciated for their quality and effectiveness for users Especially, the structure of the forums is often very reasonable and diverse, making it easy for users to find suitable documents for each specific topic lu d, Friendly learning environment at English speaking forums an n va Although just a virtual environment, English speaking forums are tn to gathering places for people with the same goal of wanting to learn to speak English better Therefore, the members here are usually quite friendly and gh p ie enthusiastic They exchange with each other like close friends, the interaction in w the forum is no less than learning English online This is very beneficial in oa nl practicing English communication for students d Join English workshops lu va an English Workshop is a series of activities in meetings and seminars of people with similar interests in the field of English The purpose of the English u nf ll workshop is to exchange, share and learn skills, experience and knowledge m oi about English A workshop is conducted when there are two components that z at nh are speakers and participants Speakers will share, provide knowledge and useful information to guests English workshops are held for the purpose of z gm @ discussing and clarifying interesting topics that everyone is interested in l At Hai Phong University of Management and Technology, English m co workshops are organized by English department on interesting topics that are an Lu always of particular interest and attention from students Not only helping students relieve stress after class, English workshops also give students a lot of n va 37 ac th si useful knowledge that they need to apply in their studies as well as in the future With good speakers and always stirring the atmosphere of the workshop, valuable content is easily conveyed to the students Students not only acquire knowledge for themselves, but also can ask questions to clarify problems and improve the difficulties they are facing in learning English Therefore, first year students at Hai Phong University of Management and Technology should actively participate in the department's English workshops as well as off-campus workshops This will give them not only knowledge about learning English but also valuable lessons that they cannot find in books, helping them to improve and enhance every aspect of themselves lu Teaching methods to improve speaking skill an n va Speaking is one of the most important skills students can master both for tn to social and studying success Students use this skill through every English class to make requests, ask questions, receive new information and interact with gh p ie friends w However, teachers must be mindful that speaking involves more than oa nl simply using words to articulate what we are thinking, and there is more at play d than simply asking students to say the words that they know So teachers have a lu va an particularly important role in raising the level of each student a, Select appropriate and effective textbook u nf ll Teaching textbook is an important part that directly affects the teaching m oi process of each teacher Teachers should choose the right textbook and bring z at nh high performance in each lesson A good textbook not only makes it easier for teachers to work, but also helps students easily absorb lessons and apply z gm @ knowledge to the fullest l b, Encourage conversation m co Every speaking lesson gives students a new opportunity to practice an Lu language Some of students might need a little guidance from their teacher to engage in conversations, so teachers should spark interactions whenever they n va 38 ac th si can Ask questions, rephrase the student’s answers and give prompts that encourage conversations to continue c, Remind students to speak loudly and articulate clearly Ask students to feel the muscles used for speech while they are talk-ing and monitor their volume and articulation Remind them that clear and loudenough speech is essential for holding the attention of the group, communicating their information and opinions effectively d, Explain the subtleties of tone Remind students how tone of voice, which includes pitch, volume, speed, and rhythm can change the meaning of what they say Often, it is not what they lu say, it is how they say, it that can lead to misunderstanding of motives and an n va attitudes Teacher should ask students to be mindful of tone when they are trying e, Create a fun and exciting atmosphere for each class gh tn to to get a message across, and adjust their volume and pitch accordingly p ie No one can easily absorb knowledge in a stressful study environment, w especially English speaking skills Therefore, the role of the teacher is to create oa nl a pleasant atmosphere and encourage the students to interact naturally in the d class Teachers can also let students come up with a suitable topic, then have lu va an them practice in pairs or in groups This process not only helps students feel more comfortable in class, but also helps each other correct mistakes and u nf ll complete assignments together oi m z at nh z m co l gm @ an Lu n va 39 ac th si PART III: CONCLUSION Research Summary As a student at Hai Phong University of Technology and Management, from having many difficulties in speaking skills, along with a deep awareness of the importance of learning to speak; The

all, due to the limited of time, experience to some extent, the l which can make the obtained results more reliable m co researcher could not conduct other methods such as classroom observation an Lu n va 40 ac th si Secondly, due to the limitation of scope of the study, the researcher only focus on the first-year students in Faculty of Foreign Language which account for a small number of students in foreign languages department Haiphong Management and Technology University Therefore, the result of the study can’t be generalized Besides, the researcher could not cover all the aspects of
