| dc.description.abstract | Being aware of the great significance of English, more and more students want to learn and desire to speak English fluently so as to serve their own purposes. However, how to teach and learn English in general and English speaking skill in particular effectively is a matter of controversy. It can be said that speaking seems to be the most interesting among four skills. However, many of the students at Haiphong Private University are often inactive and passive in participating speaking activities during speaking lessons. In addition, the interaction between teachers and students is ineffective and restricted. As a result, the students don’t get good results in speaking tests. From the above mentioned reasons, the researcher comes to the decision to carry out a study on “ How to motivate the first year English non-major students at Haiphong Private University in speaking activities” with the aim of arousing students’ active attitude towards speaking as well as bettering their ability when dealing with the skill. | en_US |
