  • EFL Teaching and Learning at a Vietnamese University: What Do Teachers Say?
    English Language Teaching; Vol. 8, No. 1; 2015 ISSN 1916-4742 E-ISSN 1916-4750 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education EFL Teaching and Learning at a Vietnamese University: What Do Teachers Say? Hong Thi Nguyen1, Heather Fehring1 & Wendy Warren1 1 School of Education, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia Correspondence: Hong Thi Nguyen, School of Education, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 10, 2014 Accepted: October 11, 2014 Online Published: December 17, 2014 doi:10.5539/elt.v8n1p31 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/elt.v8n1p31 Abstract This paper reports part of a study that documents the factors affecting the efficacy of teaching and learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in Vietnamese higher education from the teachers’ perspectives. Individual face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted with twelve EFL teachers at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH), Vietnam. The study explored both positive factors and negative factors affecting teaching quality. The findings show that an updated syllabus, modern teaching methods, and adequate facilities and equipment are positive factors identified by the teachers. Nevertheless, there are still many negative factors hindering the efficacy of English teaching and learning, including: insufficient time for English subjects; lack of speaking component in tests and examinations; unequal students’ English abilities; large class sizes; limited support from university leaders; and students’ limited efforts and motivation. The teachers were also given the opportunity to express their expectations about an ideal EFL training program, which included: a balance between financial profit and education quality; more independence for teachers and students in teaching and learning; placement tests; good and enthusiastic teachers; well-equipped classrooms; small class sizes, and student autonomy.

The city is the economic and cultural center of the Vietnamese midlands and central plateau region, and its municipality is ruled by the central government. In addition, Da Nang port is the third most important international trade port in Vietnam after the ports of Ho Chi Minh City and Haiphong. As a strategic traffic location connecting east and west on the Indo-China peninsula, Da Nang is the eastern starting point of the East-West Economic Corridor that connects the central plateau region, Myanmar, Thailand, and Laos. There are eight industrial complexes (Including the high-tech Danang IT Park) in Da Nang, and here 72 Japanese-affiliated companies have expanded their business. A Japan Business Association was established in Da Nang in October 2008. Currently about 60 companies in Da Nang and its satellite areas have joined this association. Not only does Da Nang actively accept foreign capital through direct investments; it also invests resources in its industrial clusters of domestic industrial complexes and high-tech parks.
