Some techniques to help 12th graders in trieu son 3 high school achieve good results for the general certificate of secondary education

A INTRODUCTION I The reason of selecting the topic Unlike other subjects, English is not only a subject but also a language Therefore, it has become a fairly big problem that most Vietnamese students in general and local students in particular are facing However, in this research, I not mention acquiring four basic skills of this language, but refuting the grammar test of 12th grade students in the high school graduation exam Through high school graduation examinations, especially in the last five years, I find that the average score of students in English still has been low and there is not much shifting over the years.The students in my school tried their best to review and prepare for the exams carefully, they still don't reach their own goals Moreover, the content of knowledge in the graduation exam is suitable for the knowledge they have been studying and reviewing Therefore, I wonder what makes students often get low scores This has inspired me to learn and research for many years in 12th grade and today I am brave to share some ways to help 12th graders overcome the subject's challenges and achieve their goals In this situation, I choose students in grade 12 and tests to make my experience initiative “SOME TECHNIQUES TO HELP 12TH GRADERS IN TRIEU SON HIGH SCHOOL ACHIEVE GOOD RESULTS FOR THE GENERAL CERTIFICATE OF SECONDARY EDUCATION” in order to gain the best lesson, reduce their pressure and help students improve their score in the national examination II Objectives of research, research tasks, research methodology and scope of research Objectives of research a For the students In this topic, I mainly focus on the actual subjects of basic class 12 and introduce students know how to learn and gain good results for the general certificate of secondary education, through some steps in learning procedure, students not only get knowledge in each unit, but also gain futher purposes b For the Teachers: Find out the most effective methods to improve students’ goals and know how to stimulate students to tests in effective ways Besides, teachers also draw out valuable experiments in making suitable lesson plans for different learners in each period Research tasks The purpose of research is to discover answer to questions through the application of scientific procedures The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hid and which has not been discovered as yet Through this research I mention to two main tasks: - Find out the actual situation of students’ attention to lesson and help students gain quality of knowledge in effective ways - Apply my research to teaching procedure, then compare, contrast the implementation of a topic Finally, Teacher evaluates and concludes the effectiveness of topic Research methodology - It’s a way to systematically solve the research problem It may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically In this I study the behavior and instruments I use in performing research operations such as making observations, recording data, techniques of processing data and others Research methods refer to the information used in selecting and constructing research technique such as analysis of documents, questionaires, focused and group interview, survey, comparison and evaluation All those methods which are used during the course of studying my research problem are termed as research methods Since the object of research, particularly the applied research, a solution for a given problem, the available data and the unknown aspects of the problem, I have decided to focus on: +/ I concern with the collection of data which is available without being sufficient to arrive at the required solution; +/ I use statistical techniques which are used for establishing relationship between the data and the unknown +/ I also apply the methods which are used to compare and evaluate the accuracy of the results obtained Scope of research The scope of study for a research paper is usually one of the first sections to the project It sets out the scope of my work and limitations, so I mainly focus on two aspects: +/ It’s about effective methods to help students 12 get basic and advanced knowledge and pass the exam effectively + I apply my search to students in grade 12 such 12 C5 and 12 E3 in Trieu Son high school B Content I The reasoning basis of the theme According to experts such as MC Gee (1977), Thornis (1980), Havernson & Haynes (1982) English teachers need to focus on effective factors of successful lessons such as: students’ attention to the lesson, ability of, acting on a knowledge of grammar and vocabulary and ability of working individually, in pairs or in group However, fast or slow results depend on students’ understanding in mother tongue, health, and acumen in audiovisual capability Moreover, a number of impacts other elements come to learner’s unevened apprehension leveling Therefore, teachers need to find teaching methods that are appropriate for their students Avoid boring or overly lessons with their level of awareness In short, to gain a high result in attracting students to each unit and revising tests, teachers need flexibly not only classify students properly and find out effective methods, but also make up different situations which help weak students and stimulate strong ones in each lesson Teacher should combine other skills or delete some unnecessary parts in each lesson in order to make lesson become attractive, interesting and have good results in the final exams II The real situation of the matter The real state GCSEs were introduced in 1986 to reflect the comprehensive schooling system to assess the entire ability range In addition, coursework and practical work of various kinds were introduced into the GCSE examinations at their inception in an attempt to assess skills that went beyond the strictures what could be assessed in an examination hall (Secondary Examinations Council, 1985, 1986) GCSE has been chosen as the case because virtually all pupils in England sit these examinations and they are high-stakes assess-ments Highstakes testing is defined as an assessment which has important conse-quences (e.g promotion, salary, job retention) for students, teachers, administrators or schools Although English becomes one of the official subjects at school, promoting its benefits has not been much interested, partly because the facilities are not high and don’t attract students’ passion for learning increasingly Some teachers complain that most students not concentrate on practising English tests That is the reason why students have not carefully revised their lessons and they have done them in a coping format The tests have a lot of knowledge that are not in the textbook while the teacher does not integrate the other combined knowledge This leads to the truth that students are often shocked to practice with a full English test if the teacher does not fully explain the test In addition, students not understand the lesson and are bored with learning When having a difficult problem, students are afraid to think and choose indifferently The most favourite way student often multiple choice test is making a random cut and seeking luck Teachers play an important role in improving this status They can follow some stages and strategies when teaching units because these strategies are considered as the mental operations involved when teachers approach a text effectively and make sense of what they read However, some teachers have not applied flexibly theory into practice; have not integrated properly skills together in lesson, and innovative methods which are not suitable for the students That’s why the quality of the lesson is not effective and reduces During my teaching process in Trieu Son high school, I must look at actual issues in the average score of students in previous surveys and last examinations were still low Students aren’t interested in this subject As you can see in this convey in classes 12 such as 12C5, 12 D4 and 12 E3 Disadvantaged factors Percentage (? / 100%) Textbook: - The topics are suitable 70 % for students' age, but the knowledge in the lesson is monotonous and the knowledge is spread Tasks and activities: - They are 55% often suitable with students’ knowledge Some are too difficult and strange, and others are shortage of realistic Words and structures: - Students are in trouble with a lot of new and 80 % complex words or structures in one text Students’ habit in practicing skills: - Only answer questions in the 90% task and be lazy in creation of the communication skill - Students also try to write without speaking Students’ belief: - Most students 77 % are lazy to think, passive, afraid of new words and are still apathetic subjects Teaching aids: - Most classes lack of teaching aids 43 % - Teachers aren’t interested in teaching aids of each period Moreover, there are some disadvantages in applying unsuitable methods, skills to each lesson If it happens in a long time, it will affect to students’ ability in a language class and make them passive, lack flexibility, afraid to make a conversation and make them unable to improve their average scores For example, in Unit – Part A Reading in Tiếng Anh 12; Teacher and students’ Contents limitations activities Teacher: - Ask students to warm up Most students give their opinions? Questions: How you used answers in Students: - Give opinions say in English the names of reference book these universities? -These questions What uiversity would aren’t attractive to you like to apply for and start a lesson why? - TimeTeacher: Give answer consuming Students: - Listen and copy Before you read -Students are down their notebook a Vocabulary passive Teacher: - Give some new - campus - time-consuming words in the passage - fighting back tears -It is only suitable -Ask students to copy in - challenging for students in your notebook - academically below grades Students: - Take notice - scary Teacher: - Ask students to read cleared words on the blackboard - Give comment Students: - Listen - Give answers and questions -Teacher: Ask students to work individually - Give some instructions to the lesson - Ask students to give answer - give a comment -Students: Raising their hand to talk Teacher: Ask students to work in pairs - Give some instructions to the lesson - Ask students to give answer - give a comment -Students: Raising their hand to talk b Checking vocabulary - Rub out and remember - Students feel bored and lazy While you read -Task only suits Task 1: Complete the some students in following sentences, using the class the right forms of the words in the box - This task asks Task 2: Find out who students to understand new words and choose correct word - Only stimulate some strong students - Students use answers in reference books to cope with their teacher Teacher: Ask students to Task 3: Answer the - The atmosphere following questions of the class is work in group serene - Give some instructions to Only gift the lesson students are eager - Ask students to give to speak English answer - This task doesn’t - give a comment help students -Students: Go to the board improve their and write down the answer After you read reading skill in -Talk about something in a doing test Teacher: -Ask students to university you have ever -It only helps say something in a heard or imagined students improve university their speaking skill -Compare with three persons in the passage -It isn’t useful for GCSE Through my votes in the invesigation and table of early year (2017 -2018) in class 12C5 and school year (2018 -2019) in class 12 D4, the percentage of basic students’ result in ending the reading lesson of unit as follow: Class 12 C5 Class sizes Good Above Average weakness poverty average 44 = 0% 03 = 6,8 % 15 = 34,1% 20 = 45,5 % 06 = 6,8 % - Class 12 D4 Class sizes Good Above Average weakness poverty average 43 2= 4,7% 15 =34,9 % 18 = 41.9% = 11.5 % 03 = 7% From this consequence, we can see that: From results of the current situation, I give some effective methods to help students have gained good results in GCSE through lessons in Tiếng Anh 12 I also supply more exercises to help students familiarize with the types of homework not covered in textbooks will not be under pressure of studying And I realized good results in basic classes I apply my new methods in school year 2017- 2018 Students gradually know how to solve tests, performing and applying to other tests coming from diferents high schools Each period, students discover new things for them In each period, students feel confident and comfortable in giving ideas, creation and apply it to practical situations in the life III Measure implementation Adjust the content in the textbook so that it is appropriate for the student and the knowledge in the test I adapt the content of lesson in the textbook to fit for different students in a class and help students know how to apply to the final examination a Way to perform: Each unit, I adapt four basic skills and adjust the format found in the high school graduation exam for students to have knowledge and apply it to practice This method both encourages students to take part in the lesson and provides them with central knowledge, avoiding ambiguity about the content and confusion in testing a1 Part A- READING As we know, in the high school graduation exam, the reading section consists of three parts with a total of eighteen sentences This indicates that practicing reading comprehension skills is very important to students They must try their best to cope with the difference between tasks in the textbook and reading questions in the test There are many new words in the textbook and the practice sections are not aligned with the test, which often leads to students being afraid of reading skills and losing a lot of points in this part Therefore, I decide to adjust the context of part A in the textbook to make it more reasonable For example, I apply this method to unit 2: Cultural diversity in Tieng Anh 12 Firstly, I adjust the first lesson – A reading in order to be suitable for readings in the final test students in grade 12 must overcome at the end of school year I merged Task and Task into a complete exercise shaped like the one on the graduation exam Task and task in textbook (Tieng anh12)- page 22 I change these two tasks into one multiple choice task Task1: Read the following pasage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions Question 1: What does the passage mainly discuss? A The different ideas of Americans and Asians about love and marriage B The different ideas of Americans and Asians about four key values C The different ideas of Americans and Asians about keeping happiness D A comparison of different ideas between Amaricans and Asians in the life Question 2: The word “obliged” in the passage is closest in meaning to A determine B sacrifice C compel D liberalize Question 3: According to the passage, Many Indian students agree that a woman has to A maintain her beauty and appearance after marriage B sacrifice more in a marriage than a man C trust her husband to the right thing D confide in their husband Question 4: What are the Indian students’ attitudes on physical attractiveness? A They pay attention to their wives’ appearance B They ignore their wives’ appearance after marriage C I don’t put a strong idea on maintaining wive’s beauty and appearance after marriage D They ask their wives not to concern about the appearnce because it is unnecessary Question 5: It can be inferred from the main finding of the survey that _ A Young Asians are more romantic than their American counterparts B Young Asians are as romantic as their American counterparts C Young Asians are not as romantic as their American counterparts D Young Asians are as prosaic as their American counterparts  Key: 1A 2C 3B 4C 5C a2 Part B- SPEAKING Speaking is the second skill in the process of the textbook This skill helps students practise situations and use words and phrase words to communicate fluently and naturally Speaking skill helps children express their ideas and thoughts in themselves However, in the high school graduation exam, students only need to solve two questions of communication function Therefore, I dare adjust the content of this speaking part in the textbook so that students can both have practical communication situations and well in two questions of communication skill in the exam For example, I apply this method to unit 12: WATER SPORTS in Tieng Anh 12 I adjust the second lesson – B speaking so as to be suitable for questions of communication skill in the high school graduation exam and help students practise practical situations in their daily lives - In task 1, I changed this task to make it suitable for the test by giving a situation and complete a short talk 1 Task 1: Mark A, B, C or D to indicate the sentence that best completes each of the following exchanges Question: Nam and Hung are talking about water sports - Nam: “Learning how to play water sports is not difficult.” - Hung: “ ” A You must be kidding It’s not easy B I couldn’t agree more It is not easy at all C But I don’t I failed it last year D I do, too I learned it last year Key: A Task 2: (textbook 131) I realised that this task didn’t encourage studentents to the lesson and it made students passive in thinking because students can make a sentense basing on a below example That’s why I adapt it as follow: Task 2: Work in work of five One leader asks members in the group for preferences about water sports, and writes down on his/her paper Then he/she report this before class Leader: Which sports would you prefer playing or participating in? A member of group: I prefer Scuba-diving Leader: Can you let me know the reason? A member of group: oh, simply, because I want to overcome challenge of depth and discover something under sea thanks to some equipment such as: air tank, regulator, masks, wet suit and fins *** After finishing interview members of his/her group, the leader reported members’ opinions before class Leader: Firstly, I mention to Mr Nam He prefers scuba-diving because he wants to overcome challenges of the depth and discover something under sea thanks to some equipment such as: air tank, regulator, masks, wet suit and fins (APPENDIX 1) a3 Part C- LISTENING Listening is the third skill in the process of the textbook This skill helps students accurately receive and interpret messages in the communication process However, it doesn’t exist in the high school graduation exam It is also unneccesary for students to focus on in this period Therefore, I dare adjust the content of this listening part in the textbook so that students can both practise this skill and have time to review some knowledge which may be in the final test For example, I apply this method to unit 15: WOMEN IN SOCIETY in Tieng Anh 12 I adjust the third lesson – C Listening so as to be suitable for questions in the high school graduation exam and help students improve listening skill Task and task 2(textbook 167,168) - I changed these two tasks to make them suitable for the test by asking students to arrange paragraphs in a full passage, and using this paragraph to answer questions This will help students both practice listening and reading skill 10 Task 1: Arrange below paragraphs in a full passage, and then choose the best answer basing on it In parts of Africa, this is a typical day for a village woman At 4.45 am She gets up, washes, and eats It lakes her half an hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3.00 pm She collects firewood until 4.00 pm then comes back home She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to cook Then she collects water for another hour From 6.30 to 8.30 she cooks Alter dinner, she spends an hour washing the dishes She goes to bed at 9.30 pm Women hold up half the sky This is an old Chinese saying However, research shows that perhaps women more than the share of “holding up the sky.” Fifty percent of the world’s population is women, but in nearly two-thirds of all working hours, the work is done by women They most of the domestic work, for example, cooking and washing clothes Millions also work outside the home Women hold forty percent of the world’s jobs For this work, they earn only 40 to 60 percent as much as men, and of course they earn nothing for their domestic work In developing countries, where three-fourths of the world’s population lives, women produce more than half of the food In Africa, 80 percent of all agricultural work is done by Women Key: A full paragraph: – – – Task 2: Read the passage and choose the best answer Women hold up half the sky This is an old Chinese saying However, research shows that perhaps women more than the share of “holding up the sky.” Fifty percent of the world’s population is women, but in nearly two-thirds of all working hours, the work is done by women They most of the domestic work, for example, cooking and washing clothes Millions also work outside the home Women hold forty percent of the world’s jobs For this work, they earn only 40 to 60 percent as much as men, and of course they earn nothing for their domestic work In developing countries, where three-fourths of the world’s population lives, women produce more than half of the food In Africa, 80 percent of all agricultural work is done by Women In parts of Africa, this is a typical day for a village woman At 4.45 am She gets up, washes, and eats It lakes her half an hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3.00 pm She collects firewood until 4.00 pm then comes back home She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to cook Then she collects water for another hour From 6.30 to 8.30 she cooks After dinner, she spends an hour washing the dishes She goes to bed at 9.30 pm According to the passage, what percentage of all the world's jobs women hold? A It’s 30 percent B It’s 40 percent C It’s 50 percent D It’s 60 percent What they earn for doing their domestic work? A They earn nothing for their domestic work B They earn a lot of money from their domestic work 11 C They only earn a little money from their domestic work D They earn less than man in a day Which of the following is TRUE about a typical woman in a developing country? A She doesn’t spend time doing most of the domestic work B She spends an hour collecting firewood daily C She spends two hours walking to the fields D She often goes to bed after midnight The word “domestic” in the passage is closest in meaning to _ A industrial B public C outdoor D household Which of the following is NOT mentioned to women in a developing country? A They came to the market to buy firewood B Nearly two –thirds of all working hours, the work is done by women C They produce more than half of the food D They 80 percent of farm work Key: B 2A 3B 4.D 5.A a4 Part D- WRITING Writing is the fourth skill in the process of the textbook This skill helps students express own thoughts and share information with reader However, the high school graduation exam doesn’t focus on writing topics, but rewrite sentences without changing the original meaning This made me adjust the content of this writing part in the textbook so that students can appply real theory to the final test For example, I apply this method to unit 10: ENDANGERED SPECIES in Tieng Anh 12 I adjust the fourth lesson – D Writing so as to be suitable for five questions in the high school graduation exam and help students improve writing skill Task and task 2(textbook 113) I changed these two tasks to make them suitable for the test by asking students to rewrite sentence as long as it doesn’t change original meaning This will help students get one mark from writing sentences in the test 12 Task1: Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that is closest in meaning to each of the following questions “I agree that I am narrow–minded,” said the manager A The manager denied being narrow–minded B The manager admitted being narrow–minded C The manager refused to be narrow–minded D The manager promised to be narrow–minded 2: A supermarket is more convenient than a shopping centre A A shopping centre is not as convenient as a supermarket B A shopping centre is more convenient than a supermarket C A supermarket is not as convenient as a shopping centre D A supermarket is as inconvenient as a shopping centre It was a mistake for Tony to buy that house A Tony couldn’t have bought that house B Tony can’t have bought that house C Tony needn’t have bought that house D.Tony shouldn’t have bought that house Key: 1B – 2C – 3D Task 2: Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the sentence that best combines each pair of sentences in the following questions She helped us a lot with our project We couldn’t continue without her A Unless we had her contribution, we could continue with the project B But for her contribution, we could have continued with the project C If she hadn’t contributed positively, we couldn’t have continued with the project D Provided her contribution wouldn’t come, we couldn’t continue with the project Her mother was sick She stayed at home A Despite her sick mother, she stayed at home B Because of her sick mother, she stayed at home C In spite of her sick mother, she stayed at home D Despite of her sick mother, she stayed at home Key: 1C – B b The effect of this formation - For the Teachers: I realised that this adjustment had helped students both understand the content of the lesson and apply this skill to the reading tests.This method also stimulates students to the lesson In addition, it is easy to comprehend the lesson without following a rigid model - For the Students: They will have to prepare lesson carefully, raise their hand to answer questions from the teacher, take part in the activities sympathetically and pay attention to the lesson if they want to be added good marks Of course, they will feel more confident in communication and giving their own ideas or answers They not depend on reference books to copy answers They can find information by themselves on their own, so they will understand and be 13 interested in the lesson Especially, through this adaptation, students can see the closest connection between textbook and the high school graduation exam Choose exercises relating to the topic of lesson for students to revise and supplement their knowledge a Way to perform: If students only study things in textbooks, they will be poor in vocabulary and not rubbing much with equivalent exercises To provide new sources of vocabulary and to help them familiarize themselves with the types of exercises that are included in the high school graduation exam, I collected and created some exercises relating to each unit of the textbook and containing an extension of what students have learned in class I realised that they could gradually familiarize themselves with the way to take the test and they could sumary amount of knowledge in each unit For instance, After teaching the first lesson of unit –CULTURAL DIVERSITY Tieng Anh 12, I will give my students extra passages relating to the topic Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50 When people plan to marry, they expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also They find a person with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears In marriage we are looking for a partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are familiar with the same songs, movies, jokes, books and life in general They basically have the same roots In the case of a western man and foreign woman family everything is more complicated and requires much more patience and understanding from both spouses On one hand each of the partners has an opportunity to learn a great deal about the other's country, culture, traditions and life styles which can be very interesting On the other hand it can be very disappointing if there is the inability to understand your partner's excitements and frustrations For example, you are watching the television and suddenly you see a famous actor or singer, or other type of an artist whose name you have grown up with Maybe this artist was an idol for your parents and the music of this artist was often played in your house when you were a child Unfortunately you realize that your wife is unable to understand your feelings because she has no idea who this artist is Her eyes are absolutely empty because she has never even heard the song before You feel rather disappointed! Remember that your wife has the same situation with you You not know her country's songs, her country's famous actors, her books She has her own memories and in actuality, for her, everything is much more difficult than it is for you At least, you live in your own country where everybody can understand you She lives in completely strange surroundings, where she has nobody to share her feelings with, except you Do some research and learn about your wife's country, culture and lifestyles Talk with her, ask her questions, get to know what songs she likes, what movies 14 and books are of interest to her The Internet will give you a great opportunity to find anything! Tell her about your country's culture, let her listen to the music that you like, rent a movie for her that left you with great impression Let her understand you better through the things that you like Patience and time will help you to fight cultural differences (Source: https://vi4.ilovetranslation) Question 1: When people plan to marry, what they expected? A They expect to find in their partner not only a lover but a friend also B In marriage we are looking for a partner who will be able to understand our values, our likes and dislikes C They find a person with whom they can share their opinions, their emotions, thoughts and fears D All are correct Question 2: If a man and a woman are born and raised in the same country, most likely they are with the same songs, movies, jokes, books and life in general A unfamiliar B regular C habitual D unusual Question 3: According to the passage, A Spouses who are from different cultures can never share anything together B Spouses who have the same nationality need more patience and understanding in their marriage than those who are from different cultures C Spouses who are from different cultures need more patience and understanding in their marriage than those who have the same roots D Spouses who have the same roots go not share anything together Question4: If there is the inability to understand a spouse's excitements and frustrations the marriage, he or she may feel A happy B disappointed C hopeless D faithful Question 5: The passage is _ A advisory B convincing C apologetic D critical Key: 1A 2C 3C 4B 5A b The effect of this formation - For the Teachers: I realised that this adjustment had helped students both understand the content of the lesson and enrich with a large number of new words from practising passages coming from other sources - For the Students: They will have to prepare lesson carefully, raise their hand to answer questions from the teacher, take part in the activities sympathetically and pay attention to the lesson if they want to be added good marks Of course, they will feel more confident in doing excercises refering to reading skills and vocbulary (choose synonyms and antonyms) Gradually, Students are not under pressure when facing reading comprehension exercises Accompanying the students in online learning through media such facebook and room meeting a Way to perform: 15 This way of learning will help teachers always learn with their students, get to control students’ learning environment, which ultimately helps students develop a deeper understanding of lesson more , provide them with varied opportunities to fashion their education into something that fits them, not the other way round, ready to help and timely complement the needs of students This will help students feel motivated to study and train In addition, they will neglect addictive activities such as playing video games and participating in social groups **For example: Unit 15: Women in soceity- Tieng Anh12 (APPENDIX 2) The teacher set up a facebook group for the class, then the teacher gave them homework to A day later, Students send their answers to the teacher The teacher checked and gave detailed explainations back to them In case, Students can’t understand what teachers explained, they can diarise things they can’t undersatnd, then teachers will have a room meeting to give comments and expalinations (APPENDIX3) b The result of this method: They have more lessons to practice and the teacher is always there to help and explain This will attract students to actively review and practice at home The amount of knowledge in the unit of study is still vague, then through chrome they will be taught online by teachers and directed to them This will help students pay attention to the teacher’s lecture IV THE RESULT OF RESEARCHING Through the survey and empirical comparisons conducted, comparing the results of applying new methods to speaking lessons in classes in the 20172018, 2019 -2020 school year 12 C5 12 E3, shows that: About the theory: 1.1 For the teachers: 16 Building the teaching methods in the spirit of innovation and appropriate for the requirements of students Applying flexible methods and skills or tips to practical teaching practice, thereby enhancing the quality of teaching subjects 1.2 For the students: Understand and know how to use proficiency skills, fast and efficient methods in making a conversation which can be applied to the fact They are confident, more interested in finding out information and solving situations in the daily life They also no longer have to worry about facing the high school graduation exam About the fact: The result of tasks, homework, tests after the application of the subject shows that the spirit of learning and doing all the results of the students improved a lot compared with applying traditional methods to basic skills such as: reading, speaking, listening and writing To have a correct conclusion for the research process, I have examined and collated survey results make all students before and after the application of subject to the classes: 12 C5 in 2017-2018 school year and 12E3 in 2019-2020 school year (Time to all 60 minutes) - Class 12 C5 (The basic class of block 12) has not been applied on topic - Class 12 E3 (the basic class of block 12) was applied on the subject ?

High school graduation exam is an extremely important and extremely meaningful exam for students This test is to confirm the ability and skills of students and is also an opportunity for students to choose their favorite university - In order to get a good result for the high school graduation exam for 12 students, teachers need to adjust the textbooks so that they can take full advantage of the knowledge available in the exam, followed by assigning more exercises but it must be related to the new topic so that they can remember and apply it correctly And one more thing is to accompany them to study at home When there are epidemics or droughts, children not miss schooling due to direct software or online group teaching Therefore, we must use the attractive, appropriate procedure to assist in teaching for students in basic classes 12 to achieve good results Moreover, I use all units in Tieng Anh 12 to apply some effective methods for skill lessons and I also hope that teachers should apply different methods flexibly to help students cope with challenges in GCSE Classrooms should be places where students can ask and answer meaningful questions and in which the teacher and students are co- Learns, collaborating with one another to communicate ideas and information Different group sizes (pairs, small groups, and large groups) provide opportunities for students to practise the different thinking and oral skills unique each configuration II PROPOSAL The methods applied in teaching speaking have obtained positive results However, there are restrictions in my topic I don’t realize Therefore, I look forward to hearing the comments from colleagues, especially the teachers who teaches English to make my topic more complete and more widely applied XÁC NHẬN CỦA THỦ TRƯỞNG ĐƠN VỊ Thanh Hóa, ngày tháng năm 2020 Tôi xin cam đoan SKKN viết, khơng chép Người viết Nguyễn Thị Mỹ Lệ 18 REFERENCE “The Oxford English-Vietnamese Dictionary” (Đặng Ngọc Viễn) TIẾNG ANH 12 Http/ speaking method.com “ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING METHODOLOGY” (Dr Than Trong Lien Nhan, Hue University of Foreign Languages Http/ The role of speaking skill in the life Milada Broukal, (2002) – Introduced and annotated by Le Huy Lam TOEFL speaking flash Ho Chi Minh publisher https://vi4.ilovetranslation Http/ writing method.com Http/ reading method.com 19 APPENDIX APPENDIX APPENDIX APPENDIX 20 APPENDIX APPENDIX 21 DANH MỤC 22 CÁC ĐỀ TÀI SÁNG KIẾN KINH NGHIỆM ĐÃ ĐƯỢC HỘI ĐỒNG ĐÁNH GIÁ XẾP LOẠI CẤP PHÒNG GD&ĐT, CẤP SỞ GD&ĐT VÀ CÁC CẤP CAO HƠN XẾP LOẠI TỪ C TRỞ LÊN Họ tên tác giả: Nguyễn Thị Mỹ Lệ Chức vụ đơn vị công tác: Trường THPT Triệu Sơn TT Tên đề tài SKKN Some effective methods to encourage the students in basic classes in basic classes 10 to reading lesson through lesson one of unit 16 in Tieng Anh 10 Some effective techniques to encourage the students in basic classes 11 to speaking lesson through lesson two of Unit in Tieng Anh 11 Cấp đánh giá xếp loại (Phòng, Sở, Tỉnh ) Sở GD ĐT & Sở GD ĐT & Kết đánh giá xếp loại (A, B, C) C C Năm học đánh giá xếp loại 2014 2017 23 ... interesting and have good results in the final exams II The real situation of the matter The real state GCSEs were introduced in 1986 to reflect the comprehensive schooling system to assess the entire... knowledge in the test I adapt the content of lesson in the textbook to fit for different students in a class and help students know how to apply to the final examination a Way to perform: Each... comparisons conducted, comparing the results of applying new methods to speaking lessons in classes in the 20172018, 2019 -2020 school year 12 C5 12 E3, shows that: About the theory: 1.1 For the
