Haiphong, June 2020 Student Ngo Thi Hong Nhung 1 ABSTRACT This study is aimed at finding out the difficulties encountered by 3 rd year English major in English debating skills and suggesting some solutions to the problem. In order to achieve such aims, the study is set to find out reality of teaching and learning English debating skills in Haiphong Management and Technology University, the difficulties encountered by 3rd year English majors in English debating skills, and the factors influencing debating skills of 3 rd years English majors. To achieve such aims and objectives, the researcher has made use of the combination of both qualitative and quantitative research approaches. From survey questionnaires, third years English major students at HPU mostly agree that debaing skills is really important.
However, they come to a consensus that there still remain some problems in class such as poor topic-related vocabulary, pronunciation, limited practice time at class and bad basic skills, psychological barriers, etc. It is therefore recommended that more should be done to encourage students to improve their debating skills right at university. 2 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS HP: Hai Phong HPU: Haiphong Management and Technology University MUN Debate: Model United Nations Debate NDT Debate: National Debate Tournament Debate CEDA Debate: Cross- Examination Debate Association Debate 3 LIST OF TABLES Table 1.

Currently, about two thirds nations in the world use English as their mother tongue in variety fields of social life: political, business, cultural exchange, education and others.
In Vietnam, the need and desire to acquire English has been increasing. With the purpose of finding a good job with high salary or study abroad, English learners not only master the English grammar but also hope to improve their communication ability. For such reason, it is becoming more and more necessary. When it comes to learning English: listening, speaking, reading, writing are basic skills.
Most people just focus on learning these four skills, neglecting one other very important skill in English, which is debating skill. In fact, it is not easy to study well a skill like debating. Almost students have difficulties in debating process such as student's context, topic, characteristic, learning material, etc…. In fact, there are many factors affecting the learners in English debating process.
Consequently, it is very difficult for them to master this skill. Like students from universities, I have faced many difficulties in debating. With four- year experience in debating the skill and from what me observed in praticing debating other classmate, it can be found that many students failed in practicing English debating skill. From my point of view, the next four English language skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing), English debating is one of important and complex skill.
Although students can do grammar exercises very well and master many new words and structures, they cannot apply them in English debating skills effectively. Some of them complained that they felt unconfident with debating tasks so they could hardly express their opinion. That is the reason why I decided to do a research on How to use improve debating skills for third year English major at Haiphong Management and Technology University. I strong expect to find out common difficulties in learning debating skill and suggest some solutions of the problem.2 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY The study is aimed at finding out the difficulties encountered by 3 rd year English major in English debating skills and suggesting some solutions to the problem.
In order to achieve such aims, the following objectives are set : Finding out reality of teaching and learning English debating skills in Haiphong Management and Technology University. Finding out the difficulties encountered by 3rd year English majors in English debating skills. Finding out the factors influencing debating skills of 3rd years English majors. Giving solutions to the problem.3 RESEARCH QUESTIONS The study is conducted to answer the following questions: How is the reality of teaching and learning English debating skills in Haiphong Management and Technology University? What difficulties do HPU 3rd year English majors face in English debating skills? What are the factors influencing debating skills of 3rd years English majors? How to figure out activities to improve debating skill for third year English major at HPU? 1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY There are so many diffirent material resources and reseachers that require a lot of time and effect while my personal experience is limited.
Therefore, this study can only focus on the third year English major to investigate the troubles that students at this class usually encounter and then give some proposals to overcome discovered difficulties and to improve students debating ability.5 DESIGN OF THE STUDY The study contains of four chapter: Chapter 1: The introduction are aims, scope, and the design of the study. Chapter 2: Literature review are three part: Chapter 3: Activities to improve debating skills for third year English major at HPU. Chapter 4: Recommendations and conclusion. 7 CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 The nature of debating skills 2.1 What is debating? Student competency in the 21st century is no longer exclusively assessed through a final traditional examination at the end of the term.
Instead, a variety of oral, written, individual, group, and interactive assessment tasks are now used, asking students ‘to perform real-world tasks that demonstrate meaningful application’ (Mueller, 2005, p. Therefore in-class opportunities for debating practice should prepare students for these challenges in the real-world. What is debating? The debate is a process that involves formal discussion on a particular topic. In a debate, opposing arguments are put forward to argue for opposing viewpoints.
Debate occurs in public meetings, academic institutions, and legislative assemblies.
