Student Than Thi Thuy Hien ABSTRACT Vocabulary is not an end in itself A rich vocabulary makes the skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing easier to perform (Paul Nation, 2015) The cornerstone of language is vocabulary It is the raw material from which we can express our thoughts and ideas, share information, comprehend others, and develop personal relationships Vocabulary is plainly crucial for language learning because it underpins all other language skills, can serve as a stepping stone to high level language use, and can assist the student reach fluency more quickly It is a mistake to believe that new words may be easily recalled without continuous practice Learning new words, like any other activity, necessitates some effort, and a vocabulary program will make the process as simple and effective as feasible The purpose of this research is to look at the difficulties that English majors have when studying vocabulary at Thu Dau Mot University (TDMU) in Binh Duong province It also suggests some vocabulary-learning practices to help mitigate potential issues The responses of 200 student-participants (undergraduates) were randomly selected from three different levels (second year, three year, and senior) of the 4-Year English Program at TDMU The data for this quantitative study is collected using an offline questionnaire as an instrument.The study found that English majors at TDMU struggle with numerous aspects of vocabulary development, including knowing the meanings of new terms, pronouncing new words correctly, using new words correctly, recalling and writing new vocabulary, and so on This study adds to the body of knowledge by emphasizing the necessity of acquiring English vocabulary, drawing students' attention to it, highlighting challenges encountered by students, and raising their understanding of the language Future research should look into teachers' perceptions on students' vocabulary-learning issues, as well as instructional methods used to teach vocabulary in English language schools Keywords: Vocabulary, vocabulary-learning problems, English majors, Thu Dau Mot students TABLE OF CONTENTS

A B INTRODUCTION Reason for choosing the topic Foreign languages - majors are increasingly mentioned as an indispensable factor in the process of creating a premise for international integration is Industrialization and Modernization of the country In the process, the problem is that the education and training sector needs to have fundamental and strong innovations to provide the country with highly qualified and effective workers in new circumstances The teaching and learning of specialized foreign languages at undergraduate and graduate levels is also not beyond the above goals Specialized foreign languages as a "bridge" of Vietnam's economy and culture with the outside world The world is entering the era of knowledge economy A prosperous new society in the 21st century must be a society of knowledge and based on knowledge and creative thinking of people To be able to integrate into the world community, we must learn from the experiences of advanced countries, and at the same time need to know how to apply those experiences creatively and find the right development method with the specific conditions and circumstances of Vietnam When social knowledge changes rapidly according to the knowledge economy, workers must also know how to selfrenovate their knowledge and capacity to suit the development of science, technology and technology Workers must be able to self - direct and self - elevate to adapt to the new requirements of society In the framework of the article, we mention the current basic problems of specialized foreign languages in general, foreign languages for science and technology and technology in particular in developing and improving teaching effectiveness - study to meet the requirements of the integration process in Vietnam today Communication skills in English is an important factor and is considered as an essential skill in an integrated society like Vietnam today English is considered the official language of transactions in most fields such as business, commerce, information technology and communication in the world Improving English communication skills helps students to be able to communicate with foreigners fluently, creating job opportunities and enhancing the stature of Vietnamese human resources in the eyes of international businesses In addition, practicing English

communication skills and improving English vocabulary also helps students improve their knowledge and access to a vast treasure of information that, when combined with English proficiency, is a useful means for students themselves not only in the process of studying and researching but also in future work When applying for a job, most employers require new employees to have proficiency in English, so having the ability to speak English will be a decisive advantage, especially for students when applying for jobs Graduated from school and will have many opportunities to be accepted into high positions in domestic and foreign companies and enterprises That's why I realize that in my own school, which is Thu Dau Mot University, most of you are still very weak in knowledge and skills in foreign languages such as English, so I want to give Some solutions to improve vocabulary learning skills for you, so I chose the topic as: “Current situation and solutions to improve vocabulary

(location, form, time), can flexibly adjust the time for self-study, but needs the will and perseverance to complete the course to the scheduled timetable For communicative English, one advice is that you should divide your self-study time into about 30-45 minutes/1 time and about 2-3 times/day with different forms, content and objects Different communication objects to make self-study time interesting Seventh, deciding to learn English requires you to change your habits And you have to spend time every day for learning English like your other hobbies You should 52

use the time to watch movies, surf the web, go to facebook, go out with friends To learn English every day For example, decide that you will read an English book for 30 minutes a day and always keep a fixed amount of time to this It is very difficult to make a small but lasting change in your life, especially if learning English does not bring you joy However, learners should remember that studying English for 30 minutes a day will give better results than studying all at once in a month And when learning English, listening to English, communicating with friends in English Everyday will help you to stabilize your habits, interests and form a lifestyle Considering English as an indispensable part of your life, I am sure you will succeed Finally, we must have criteria to evaluate our self-study ability, through communicating with friends, teachers, English communication clubs to consider our English level, there by having a more effective learning method Besides reviewing and assessing their own self-study ability, students can motivate themselves if they see that their English ability and ability have improved in many ways that they want But if we have not achieved what we have set out before, we should take measures to punish ourselves to notice the mistake and fix it, not to repeat it 3.5 Solution group on motivation and learning attitude Every job needs inspiration, belief, motivation, and language learning too However, many students have negative thoughts about learning English and since then, lose the will to improve despite realizing the importance of this language Therefore, there should be solutions to orient, motivate, and interest students in English The authors propose some solutions as follows: Firstly, constantly influencing students, helping students to be aware of the role and importance of English in the present and future period This should be done through propaganda measures in various forms Open sessions instead of boring, repetitive, stressful seminars and talks that are just formal, making students bored when they have to be invited to attend, but we need to build presentations both play and deeply so that students understand not only the importance but also the urgency of equipping and improving their ability to learn English vocabulary in the current and future integration trend Coordinate various forms of communication to send messages and launch English learning movements: Such as increasing information on the faculty's radio 53

station about international economic integration, recruitment requirements, The banners are designed with eye-catching images with profound messages about the urgency of English for students, as well as in extracurricular activities for students During class sessions, teachers should spend time, orient and guide students to self-study, self-practice their ability to learn English vocabulary, help students overcome difficulties, acquire learning methods proper and correct English Secondly, students need to pay attention to their interest and passion in learning English, because it is important in maintaining and constantly improving their ability to learn English vocabulary: Getting into the habit of writing a short paragraph describing how the day's work was like, and having something happen that made you happy is also a good solution that individual students can apply Keep a diary every day about your progress in learning English and review the diary at the end of each week to have more motivation to study and fight In addition, students can write a short story, or a sample of funny stories in English and Vietnamese languages interwoven Every time you learn something new, write it down Anything as long as it has something to with learning English, write it down This takes less than 10-15 minutes/day Write a little bit each day, gradually your English vocabulary knowledge will improve and review the articles at the end of each week for more motivation Each individual student should have a certain image that has conquered English as an example Like the current Vietnamese singers and actors such as singer Son Tung M-TP, singer Noo Phuoc Thinh, singer Dong Nhi, They often go to perform everywhere but still not forget to improve their English with others shared a desire for Vietnamese music to fly high and far in the international music market Therefore, through overseas tours and Vietnamese music, many international friends know and respond positively Or in Vietnamese football, there are typical players such as Luong Xuan Truong, Nguyen Cong Phuong, Nguyen Tuan Anh, These players always improve their professional skills and English knowledge to have the opportunity to play football in Vietnam football clubs of developed countries You can also choose good examples to study and follow along with a strong belief that will urge you that “I can achieve the same results!” Having a good role model and model to look up to will help a lot in the long-term English learning process of each individual 54

Third, students can ask someone to check and motivate, this way students have more support from others Find a relative (friend, sibling, parent, even lover…) who can be trusted and always ready to

CHAPTER 4: CONCLUSION The topic "Current situation and solutions to improve vocabulary learning skills of students majoring in English at Thu Dau Mot University" has pointed out the weaknesses and difficulties in the factors affecting the learning process English vocabulary of students of Faculty of English Language Propose solutions to help students actively and effectively learn English vocabulary, as well as propose directions to build a learning environment, create conditions to satisfy their learning needs and practice their ability to learn words English vocabulary for students The evaluations and conclusions are all based on theoretical foundations and scientific data, in fact through descriptive statistical methods, simulation and direct sampling The research results show that the students' ability to learn English vocabulary as assessed through English courses is relatively positive, but there is a tendency to decrease year by year skills in English are only average, not able to collide with reality At the same time, for the factors that affect the students' ability to learn English vocabulary such as motivation and learning attitude, self-study ability, environment during class, environment outside of class time, and learning environment The facilities are not perfect and meet the needs of improving students' ability to learn English vocabulary, in
