This study investigates the development of communicative competence in English for Occupational Purposes (EOP) classrooms at a university in Vietnam. Focusing on teachers' practices, the research explores how communicative competence is fostered using Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) principles.
This study adopted a qualitative research method with a case study approach. First, the researcher asked the participant teacher to provide video recordings. Afterwards, data was gathered from a semi-structured interview with open-ended questions with the teacher participant and the teacher's self-reflection on her practice of code-switching between L1 and L2 in the recorded lessons.
The objective of this research is to examine how reciprocal teaching affects learners in both learning outcomes and attitudes. To meet the desired objectives, this mixed method study examined the effect of the reciprocal teaching model (RTM) on enhancing the reading comprehension abilities of English-majored sophomores.
