Objectives From the context of teaching and learning language translation at Ho Chi Minh Industry and Trade College (HITC), the author carried out a study with the purpose of exploring how the use of flipped approach affects the translation skills of English-majored students. Besides, the author also wanted to explore students’ perceptions toward the flipped approach in translation classroom. In particular, the study was to find out the effect of flipped approach on translation skills as Reading Comprehension, Researching, Analytical Reasoning, and Composing.
The study was focused to explore the perceptions of students toward the flipped approach on four main constructs as Motivation, Effectiveness, Engagement, and Satisfaction. Contents The quantitative method study was conducted with 120 third year English-majored students. The quantitative data from the pretest, post-test, and questionnaire were processed by SPSS (20. The first finding, in general, revealed that most of the participants in flipped approach achieved better than traditional classroom by participating in the classroom designed with group activities and individual activities.
The second finding showed that most of the treatment participants in this study perceived positively about the flipped approach through their learning process.

In addition, I would also like to send my heartfelt thanks to two of my colleagues at Ho Chi Minh City Industry and Trade College who gave me effective cooperation and the students who help with the implementation of flipped approach and the data collection. Nguyen Thi Phuong Nga ABSTRACT Translation competence is seen as one of the essential language skills in learning English.
However, traditional methods of lecture-based teaching are still pervasive in many Vietnamese translation courses at higher education that cause ineffective learning and practicing. This study presents characteristics and classroom operation of flipped approach that are considered as alternative, practical and more efficacious ways to facilitate learners in developing basic translation skills as reading comprehension, researching, analyzing, and composing. This study aims to explore how the use of flipped approach affects the translation skills and to investigate the perceptions of third year English- majored students in a flipped translation classroom. 120 English majors at Ho Chi Minh Industry and Trading College participated in the research in 15 weeks.
The quantitative and research method was applied to collect data. The software SPSS (20.0) was used to process the quantitative data collected from pretest, post-test, and questionnaire. The results revealed two major findings: experimental participants performed better than control participants in the post-test, experimental participants expressed positive perceptions toward motivation, effectiveness, engagement, and satisfaction in the flipped translation classroom. The study indicates that flipped approach enables the students to perceive the importance of self-study, cooperative participation in the group, and active learning in the classroom in order to achieve better outcomes.
