collected from the class observations in the classroom settings The study focused on finding out the types of questions the teachers used in English speaking lessons and exploring students' interaction to the teachers' questions The findings of the study showed that the three teachers used three main types of questions, namely display questions, referential questions and yes/no questions in which the display questions were most frequently asked, followed by yes/no questions and referential questions were rarely asked Regarding the purposes of questions, display questions were mainly asked with diagnostic and instructional functions Yes/no questions aimed to function as diagnostic and motivational tools The purpose of referential questions was to motivate students by asking information about students themselves Also, the findings indicated that most of the students‟ responses were very brief, with one to three words and many questions were not answered Longer responses up to nine words could be found in a few instances However, these longer responses accounted for a small percentage Besides, the use of referential questions in the investigated lessons did not seem to be successful and effective The findings revealed that there were not many longer responses when referential questions were asked Next, the way that the teacher asked the students to explain their answers resulted in longer responses However, most of the teachers did not focus on follow-up questions or the ways of giving feedback In brief, the teachers at THD High School were not skillful in using their questioning and need training more in applying this technique in speaking Therefore, this thesis proposes some useful implications to the teachers who want to have more effective questioning in order to promote interaction in their classroom It is also hoped that the results of the thesis will provide useful information and lessons for those who want to research at the schools

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Rationale of the study English has been seen as the most important foreign language in Vietnam since the 6th National Congress of the Vietnamese Communist Party in 1986 initiated an overall economic reform known as “Doi moi” Young people realize the need of learning English for a plenty of reasons such as getting jobs in foreign companies, studying abroad, and travelling Nevertheless, according to Van (2006), the quality of teaching and learning foreign languages at both general and tertiary levels in Vietnam is still very low, which is far from meeting the present country‟s demand of socio-economic development “Though the aims of the curriculum at secondary school are to train the four skills and students‟ required language proficiency is upperintermediate level However, their real level is just somewhere between elementary and lower-intermediate Many school leavers cannot read simple texts in English nor communicate with English speaking people in some most common cases Actually the real focus of teaching and learning English in both lower secondary and secondary schools is completing English grammar and vocabulary exercises, in order to pass the final exams (even the entrance exams of many universities and colleges in Vietnam) which mainly consist of grammar and vocabulary tasks only” (Tien, 2013, p.66) This situation is true in my teaching context at Tran Hung Dao High School in Nam Dinh Our students learn English to pass the compulsory exams, so they practise doing exercises relating to the tests such as grammar, vocabulary, reading skills and pronunciation Although teaching methodology has changed from translation method to communicative method, students not focus on speaking and listening skills For them, these skills will be practiced later when they have entered university The consequence is that students cannot communicate despite the fact that they have been learning English for many years This way of students‟ thinking has an influence on teaching and learning speaking in class As a teacher, I
