INTRODUCTION I Rationale of the study Language teaching is a complex process involving many interrelated factors LarsenFreeman (2000) points out: language teaching can be summarized into three fields: language learner/learning (How to learn); language/culture (What to Learn); teacher/teaching (How to teach) Since the 1960s, the research on classroom discourse has grown rapidly Before that, teaching methodology has been explored and an effective teaching method is tried to be found Since teaching methods don‟t play a decisive role in language classrooms (Long, 1981a), the focus has shifted from teaching methods to teacher talk in classroom process Just as Ellis (1985:143) points out: “Classroom process research, as Gaies calls the study of communication in the classroom, has taken a different form The earliest was interaction analysis … An alternative approach focused only on the language used by the teacher when addressing second language learners It sought to tabulate the adjustments which occur in teacher talk ” Teacher talk is an indispensable part of foreign language teaching in organizing activities, and the way teachers talk not only determines how well they make their lectures, but also guarantees how well students will learn (Cook, 2000: 144) According to pedagogical theory (Cook, 2000; Chaudron, 1988; Zhao, 1998), the language that teachers use in classrooms determines to a larger degree whether a class will succeed or not In English classrooms, teachers‟ language is not only the object of the course, but also the medium to achieve the teaching objective Both the organization of the classroom and the goal of teaching are achieved through teacher talk Appropriate teacher talk can create harmonious atmosphere and, at the same time, promotes a more friendly relationship between teachers and students and, consequently, creates more opportunities for interactions between teachers and students Learning English in Vietnam takes place mainly in classrooms and is usually done under the guidance and supervision of teachers Classroom language is the chief source of foreign language learning and, in some places, the only source It functions not only as a major source of language learning but also as a tool by which a foreign language is taught Until (LUAN.van.THAC.si).teacher.talk.at.ly.tu.tan.high.school

hanoi.and.its.implications.for.effective.classroom.interactions(LUAN.van.THAC.si).teacher.talk.at.ly.tu.tan.high.school hanoi.and.its.implications.for.effective.classroom.interactions recently, teacher talk in the EFL classroom was considered to be a problematic area for language teachers For one time, it was thought that “good” teacher talk meant “little” teacher talk, since too much teacher talk deprived students of opportunities to speak However, it should be the “quality” rather than the “quantity” that counts “Good teacher talk” should be judged by how effectively it was able to facilitate learning and promote communicative interactions in the classroom Since a better understanding of the use of teachers‟ language can undoubtedly help students improve their learning, and students can make a better use of teacher talk to learn the target language, it is necessary to some research on teacher talk from both theoretical and practical perspective Personally, the researcher always thinks that teacher talk is one of the most important keys to success in the teaching and learning of a foreign language, so she devoted her time researching for the thesis: “Teacher Talk at Ly Tu Tan High School, Hanoi and its implications for effective classroom interactions” with its application to her and her colleagues‟ teaching of English at Ly Tu Tan High School, where she is working II Purpose of the study The aim of the research is to investigate the nature of teacher-student interaction in English classes at Ly Tu Tan High School In general, it has three purposes First of all, it is to investigate the current situation of the teacher talk amount at Ly Tu Tan High School, Hanoi Secondly, it aims at finding ways of teacher talk preferred respectively by teachers and students Finally, it is to provide teachers with some implications for effective teaching The study aims at answering the following research questions: What is the amount of teacher talk time (TTT) of the total class time in English classes at Ly Tu Tan High School? What are the ways of teacher talk preferred respectively by teachers and students? What should be done to improve classroom interactions?

study Teacher talk is such a broad and interesting theme that it requires the work of generations of scholars and researchers if it is to be thoroughly investigated Therefore, within the framework of this paper, the researcher has no ambition of touching upon all aspects of this fascinating segment of FLT In this thesis, an attempt was made to study teacher talk in speaking classes, especially a speaking period of Unit 15: CITIES in the English 10 textbook to investigate the amount of teacher talk in the process of interactions between teachers and students and to discuss ways of teacher talk in initiating an interaction and following up a student‟s response preferred respectively by English teachers and 10th-form students at Ly Tu Tan High School IV Method of the study Both quantitative and qualitative methods are employed to carry out the study That is, the data serving analysis and discussion were collected by means of: - Reviewing the related document on interactions in language classes, structure of classroom discourse, amount of teacher talk and features of teacher talk - Observing classrooms and audio-recording - Conducting questionnaires V Significance of the study Teacher talk has always been given a significant position in language teaching Nevertheless, how to make teacher talk enhance foreign language teaching and learning effectively often poses great problems to both teachers and students This study is important in some aspects First, it may serve as an empirical study to investigate teacher talk Then, it can also be taken as a reference for teachers to get a better understanding of classroom interactions Finally, some suggestions for making the classroom interactions more communicative are provided
