The thesis is my own work and based on my own research. It involves no material previously published or written by any other person, except where due reference is made in the paper. Hanoi, 2015 Vi Diệu Thuần i ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The composing process of conducting this thesis is the most valuable journey I have ever had. Without this journey, I would not have been aware of all the joy and fortune I have been blessed with throughout my entire life. I consider myself one of the luckiest students to have a chance to work with a distinguished advisor that opened my eyes and gained my complete respect both academically and personally. Dr. Do Tuan Minh, one of the most remarkable gurus in EFL teaching in ULIS, VNU, devoted his time, effort and support to teach me how to be a serious researcher. Dr. Minh, with his spectacular vision and insight, is the one who provided all the help that I needed to complete such an enormous task. I am also obliged to express my gratitude to him for spending every minute of his precious time in proofreading this paper and giving me valuable corrections and suggestions. I was and still am amazed at Dr. Minh’s critical thinking and efficiency in problem solving. From the interactions with Dr. Minh, I witnessed his overwhelming power to focus on the overall research design, and at the same time, specific details in the study. I also would like to acknowledge the support and assistance of Dr. Minh for provoking my interest in the topic by asking crucial questions, assisting in the editing of the draft, and making himself available to me throughout the final stage of completion. Last but not least, I want to thank my family for their unconditional understanding and love. My parents, my sister, my brother-in-law, and my friends – Thao, Lloyd, and Chris, have been my enthusiastic cheerleaders through the rough academic path I have followed. Many other people whose names are impossible to be cited also contributed valuable help and support. Though their names not appear in this acknowledgement, they shall always be cherished and embraced in my heart. The writing process, though difficult, is indeed a delightful journey, through which I discovered that I got richer every day. ii ABSTRACT Listening is one of the most pivotal skills, though; it is unjustly neglected compared to the other language skills. It was previously considered as a passive skill but now those ideas have been proved as myths. Therefore seeking innovative methods for teaching and developing listening materials for EFL students should not be taken for granted. Lack of adequate exposure and attention to listening sets the ground for authentic listening materials to improve the context in Vietnam. There have been controversial ideas regarding the use of authentic listening materials. Specifically, their results ranged from total abstinence to complete utilization. This study intends to investigate the impact of YouTube videos as supplementary materials to enhance listening skills of students at International Standard Program, University of Languages and International Studies, Vietnam National University Hanoi. To serve this aim, fifty students were randomly assigned to two groups. One group was exposed to YouTube vieos as listening supplementary materials (experimental group) and the other groups received simplified listening materials (control group). A pre-test was used to measure the differences among the students’ listening level at the beginning of the study. After six weeks, a post-test was administered for both groups. Besides a students’ feedback survey was given to experimental group to evaluate their attitudes and opinions about the materials. Analysis of quantitative study and comparing the mean scores of two groups via t-test showed that students who were exposed to YouTube videos as supplementary materials performed better in post-test. The analysis of the feedback survey also denoted their satisfaction and positive attitudes towards YouTube videos as listening materials. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Billy Elliot Expressing Yourself .XXI (Comedy Musical) .XXI Should you trust your first impression? - Peter Mende-Siedlecki .XXI Catch Me If You Can XXI (Movie Trailer) XXI Diet & Nutrition Tips | Female Bodybuilding .XXII (Tutorial) XXII The 10 WEIRDEST Superstitions in the World! .XXII (Vlog) XXII Famous Failures XXII An Education-Jenny finds out the truth .XXII Keane - Everybody's Changing XXII The Cost Of Being Famous: Flappy Bird XXIII (Vlog) .XXIII Oprah on Taking Responsibility for Your Life - Oprah's Life class - Oprah Winfrey Network XXIII Aqua - Around The World XXIII Old Spice | Behind the Scenes .XXIV Ariana Grande - Take Risks (Q&A on the Honda Stage at iHeartRadio Theater LA) XXIV (Interview) XXIV Megamind - Metrocity is ours! .XXV (Movie extract) .XXV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4E3_2E0Qaw XXV MILLION $ FOR CHARITY!

It is considered international because of its significance in cultural aspects in not only former Bitish colonies but also in other countries due to integration. Besides, English is regarded as global thanks to the dominance of the language in this information technology age. It is a common knowledge that any modern citizen of this rapidly growing twenty-first century mastering the English language is determined to overpower those who not. Still, there remain some opponents of this trend who decide to go against the flow to probably avoid the domination of the language and its culture. Notwithstandingly, any practical and serious thinking individual could easily tell how that conservative idea is hardly working at this point now that English has been deeply rooted and undoubtedly here-to-stay in our society. In other words, one, needless to say, greatly depends on English to survive and thrive in this contemporary world. The teaching and learning of English; therefore, has been immensely concentrated around the globe. English language is even separated into four distinctive skills to be easily taught to non-native speakers of English. As a child, we learn to listen before we speak, so it is fairly clear that input should come first before output. As a result, Reading and Listening are supposed to be taught before Writing and Speaking. Novel movements in teaching English language also share the same opinion on placing more attention to the communicative purpose of the language by focusing on Listening and Speaking. Yet, reality has showed inconsiderable improvement in learners’ listening skills accompanied by a bitter truth of listening remaining a struggle for English learners. player final answers - T provides suggested answers for the 4.
