Page 1 ABSTRACT The purpose of learning any language is to communicate effectively and no communication is possible if one doesn’t get a chance to communicate. It is natural that the demand for communication is high in this ever-changing world.
Language plays a crucial role in communication and English is no doubt the foremost and most important tool of communication all over the world. Students in Haiphong city are exposed to their language right from their primary level. English is widely taught in Haiphong and there is a great difference between the city- bred children and the rural one in adapting to English language. The urban children are exposed to a lot of methods of learning English with ample facilities and special training in schools to improve their Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing skills which are the basic skills for learning any language whereas rural students have only limited exposure to learn English.
In recent years, a raising problem encountered by high school students in general and rural ones in particular is extremely bad speaking skill. This leads to a serious subsequence is that quality of students is low as well as learning and teaching have to face to many difficulties due to the reason that speaking skill is an essential instrument when learning communication in any another language. The problems were related to speaking materials, students’ physical limits, and supporting equipment. This paper deals with the effective methods which can be employed in teaching English to the rural students for their enhancement.

HPU – Haiphong Private University 2. HP– Haiphong city Page 6 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Rationale It could not be denied that English language in the whole world has become more and more important. English even becomes the international language, is used in many countries in a popular way and is the mother tongue of many countries over the world. In fact, English is the native language of more than 350 million people and it is spoken more than any other languages.
It is the international language of different fields such as business, politics, science, technology, banking, tourism and others. Therefore, the demand for learning English is very great. In Vietnam as well as in other countries, there is a greater and greater need to learn English, from young to old, and from male to female alike. English gradually plays a vital role in Vietnam nowadays.
Therefore, it is being taught at every educational level and it has become a compulsory subject in most schools. It is expected that learners must master four language skills: writing, reading, speaking, and listening skill. Of those skills, speaking is considered one of the most important skills but in language teaching, “Getting students to talk is the major and one of the most difficult tasks confronting any teacher” (Chris Candlin ,1990). Speaking also plays a crucial role in daily life.
People speak for different purposes such as communication, academic purposes or send necessary information. As for English learning, speaking is of paramount importance since it provides the language output (Rost, 1994). Without creating output appropriately, learning simply cannot get any improvement. Apart from listening skill, speaking is a key skill used in com- munication.
Speaking skill is very important because unless you are able to talk, people cannot understand what you mean, so you do not know how to connect to others. This means that only when you can speak, people can understand. Therefore, without creating spoken output, no communication can be achieved (Cross, 1998). Mentioning about learning English, almost Vietnamese people just focus on grammar and vocabulary without realizing the importance of speaking skill in the future.
This is also true with the rural highschoolers in HP. They had a chance to access to English when they was in primary schools, but generally, the sad fact is that their speaking skill is the weakest one. Thus, the researcher Page 7 decided to choose speaking skill as the research topic to find out the solutions to improve such problem.2 Research presupposition Several principle questions are raised as follows: 1) What problems of speaking skill are most often encountered by the rural high school students in HP? 2) What are the possible causes of difficulties in acquiring speaking skill? 3) What techniques should students apply in improving the effectiveness of learning speaking skill? 1.3 Research objectives The study is aimed at the following goals: 1) To find out the most common difficulties in learning speaking encountered by the rural highschoolers in HP. 2) To identify the causes of the problems of speaking faced by the rural highschoolers in HP 3) To find out and give some solutions to minimize the difficulties and improve efficiency in speaking skill 1.4 Research scope Within this study, the researcher only focuses on the rural highschoolers in HP to investigate the troubles that students at this class usually encounter and then give some proposals to overcome discovered difficulties and to improve students speaking ability.
The population involved in the study is the rural highschoolers in HP.
