in large writing classes (2) advantages of use of peer tutoring in large writing classes and ( 3) difficulties of use of peer tutoring in large writing classes 250 students and teachers are asked to answer survey questionnaires In addition, to clarify the issues raising from the questionnaires, interview and classroom observation were conducted The result showed the evaluation of students and teachers toward use of peer tutoring in large writing classes Because of large-size classes, writing stages is often used peers and teachers mainly use dyadic fixed-role tutoring and match peers based on their students’ knowledge In contrast, students appreciated the effectiveness of dyadic reciprocal-role tutoring In terms of advantages, both of them have the same ideas of advantages in peer tutoring such as: establishing close relationships, providing real audience for writer and reducing discomfort in large writing classes There is little contrast but it is not considerable Besides, in terms of difficulties in peer tutoring, three most difficult issues are listed by both students and teachers: lack of facilities in classes and time TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com iv

PART A: INTRODUCTION Rationale Numerous methodologies have emerged in the field of education throughout the centuries One of the methods is peer tutoring “Peer tutoring refers to the concept of students teaching other students in formal or informal learning situations that are delegated, planned or directed by the teacher” ( Wagner( 1982-5)) A lot of researches states that peer tutors are effective in helping students with the different stages of the writing process which is considered to be the most difficulty and complex skill in teaching and learning English language Moreover, Johnson and Johnson( 1975-37) showed that “ peer tutoring takes the pressure off the teacher by allowing her to teach a large group of students, at the same time, it allows the slow learners the individual attention they need.” Buckholt and Wodarski( 1978-50) added that “ peer tutoring can reduce anxiety caused by vast differences in age, status, and background between students and teachers A peer tutor can may possible communicate more easily with a student” Therefore, peer tutoring has advantages of teaching in multi-level large classes It creates communicative opportunities as well as additional motivation for learning Also, the teachers not have to have difficulties in management and organization of large classes In addition, I have been teaching English in University of Economic and Technical Industries (UNETI) for at least three years I realize similar issues also have appeared in UNETI, which encourages me to conduct the study “Teaching writing in large classes through peer tutoring in UNETI” Aims of the study This study was aimed to: (1) Examine the current situations of using peer tutoring to teach large writing classes (2) Examine the advantages of use of peer tutoring in large writing classes (3) Examine the difficulties of use of peer tutoring in large writing classes Research questions The study was carried out in order to find out the answers to research questions
