Process essay about "How to teach vocabulary"
Is it good idea to teach vocabulary? Can it be learned in class? Is there any way to learn by ourselves without class? Does learning vocabulary need a teacher? Vocabulary is a basic part in all languages. But how can we as a teacher, teach them? In teaching vocabulary what points should be noticed? In this essay we explain three points briefly. You can follow these steps:

First, determine the important role of vocabulary to students and allocate specific time of your class to teach vocabulary. As we know words are basic building blocks of language. The vital level of communication is vocabulary. Even we can communicate without any grammatical rules. So it is necessary to allocate sometime of class to teach vocabulary. The students should feel that they need to learn more and more vocabulary. We as a teacher should create this feelings and motivate them to learn more.

Second, teach vocabulary in the context. Each word has different meaning. It is a context which determines the meaning. In fact the context helps students to memorize the word. Also teaching vocabulary in isolation isn’t helpful for students because they want to use them in authentic situation.

The third one is encouraging the students to develop strategies for guessing the meaning of words. Although using dictionary helps students to learn more and see more words, but it is a boring way to find the meaning and the clues of the meaning. This activity causes the students enjoy learning and increase students’ self-confidence. Learning vocabulary is so easy if we can teach them in interesting way and based on the principles.

Teacher should know about the importance role of the vocabulary and try to teach them in the context and pursue the learners to use them in real situation, not just memorize them and at the end we should find interesting way to learn the meaning of words by the students.
