However, few studies have investigated how both EFL teachers and learners view and analyze situations in which learners are not producing enough spoken language in class, and the reasons behind them. The present study will pinpoint the significant role of lexis in Moroccan learners' speaking production. To this end, 40 EFL teachers and 200 Moroccan high school students are surveyed and interviewed to reveal their perceptions of the speaking skill and the corresponding high significance of lexis in this instance. Results show that both teachers and learners identify vocabulary deficiency as the main factor behind students' inability to speak English. In the present paper, among the many suggestions that could be proposed to deal with this situation, it is argued that one efficient way would be to assist the students during the process of L2 (second language) vocabulary learning through vocabulary learning strategy instruction. Pedagogical and research implication will be given in response to the difficulties encountered in this area as have been identified by the EFL teachers and learners surveyed.展开更多

The questionnaire survey, oral English test, experimental research design and practice prove that establishing a dynamically professional oral English formative evaluation based on student behavior not only has good backwash effect, ensure the enthusiasm and interest of students learning oral English, but also can enhance the autonomic learning awareness and ability of students and improve the cooperative learning and communicative ability of students, which greatly improve the learning effect of students.展开更多

Though much research has been done on Chinglish, statistical studies of Chinglish are still insufficient, especially in China. This paper reports a quantitative research on Chinglish in the oral English of college students. The paper proposes an objective attitude towards Chinglish; more input of western culture, and more regard for appropriate oral English learning strategies.展开更多
