11 PART A INTRODUCTION Rationale One of the main tasks assigned to foreign language teaching at school is that of training students to be communicatively competent Speaking is "the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal and non-verbal symbols, in a variety of contexts" (Chaney, 1998: 13) In any second language teaching and learning, speaking is always believed to be the most vital skill Learning a target language makes no sense if you cannot communicate in it successfully For many years, teaching speaking has been undervalued and English teachers have continued to teach speaking just as a repetition of drills or memorization of dialogues However, with the rapid progress of globalization, English speaking skill is thought to be the key to one‟s success in his career The goal of teaching speaking should improve students' communicative skills, because, only in that way, students can express themselves and learn how to follow the social and cultural rules appropriate in each communicative circumstance Classroom activities that develop learners‟ ability to express themselves through speech would therefore seem an important component of a language course However, due to some objective and subjective reasons, teaching and learning English in general and teaching and learning speaking in particular does not come up to the study goals A great deal of researches has shown that students are often hesitant and anxious about speaking the target language in class Despite teachers‟ efforts to provide students with opportunities to develop their communicative skills, how to teach and learn speaking skills effectively is still a challenging question to both teachers and students to many high schools in Vietnam At Van Canh High School, the situation is the same For most students, they find speaking especially important yet challenging one What can we, as teachers, to help our learners overcome their problems and take advantage of opportunities to practice speaking? For me, as a teacher, mastering methodology is very important Especially, I am interested in teaching speaking skills But how to conduct an effective speaking lesson is very difficult Therefore, I hope that the study will help to facilitate my teaching TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com (LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school (LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school(LUAN.VAN.THAC.SI).Difficulties.in.teaching.English.speaking.skills.to.the.tenth.form.students.at.Van.Canh.high.school 12 All the above mentioned reasons have inspired the writer to conduct a research titled “Difficulties in teaching English speaking skills to the tenth form students at Van Canh High School.” Aims and significance of the study This study is aimed at finding out the difficulties in teaching and learning English speaking skills that 10th form students and English teachers at Van Canh High School have encountered Also it is expected to investigate the causes of those difficulties Through this some solutions to solve these problems will be suggested The study is carried out with the hope to be of some help to improve the effectiveness of English learning and teaching at van Canh High School Scope of the study The study only focuses on the difficulties that 10th form students and English teachers at Van Canh High school have encountered in speaking skills Research questions (1) What are the difficulties encountered by the English teachers and the 10th form students in teaching and learning English speaking skills at Van Canh High School?
