Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of employing the direct method in teaching English

vocabulary to B1 level students

. The Vocabulary Approach, in various contexts, emphasizes the

significance of expanding one

s lexicon or word knowledge, word usage, word relationship,

communication skills (Recognizing that a robust vocabulary enhances communication skills).

Learning a language through vocabulary involves classroom observations, student surveys, and pre-
and post-tests. Results indicate that students exposed to this approach demonstrate greater
engagement, improved vocabulary accuracy, and increased confidence in using English in
vocabulary situations. The findings highlight the importance of adopting innovative pedagogical st
rategies that promote active participation and meaningful interaction in language learning
classrooms. This study contributes to the ongoing discourse on effective language teaching
methodologies and provides insights for educators seeking to enhance vocabulary instruction for B1
level English learners. Overall, this study provides valuable insights for educators seeking to enhance
vocabulary instruction for B1 level English learners. The positive outcomes observed, including
enhanced engagement, improved vocabulary accuracy, and heightened confidence. As language
educators strive to create dynamic and effective learning environments, this study offers practical
implications and recommendations for optimizing language teaching practices at the B1 level.

English is seen as one of the more demanding languages in our daily lives. The

fact that attention is being paid to the English language that is being shown is obviously

anything from mysterious. A Decree

On measures to additionally improve the

learning arrangement of unknown dialects

was signed by Islam Karimov, the first

President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, in order to create a young population that is

well-groomed and well-educated. English language teaching has recently begun to

focus on phonetic and social variation rather than training viewpoints associated with

the English language. English is perhaps the most well-known undiscovered dialect.

Many Uzbek people want to study for social, economic, and educational purposes; this

is also true for many other non-English speaking countries.

Teaching is the process of imparting information from one person to another

using resources and an approach, method, or technique. (Brown, 1987)

“teaching is

showing or helping someone to do something, giving instruction, guiding in this study

of something, providing with the knowledge causing to know or understand.”

The Direct Method of Vocabulary Instruction In the seventh grade of junior

high school, a teacher is responsible for assigning tasks, offering guidance and

teaching, and imparting knowledge that helps students learn or comprehend. And the

male is typically referred to as the instructor. Learning and teaching are inextricably

linked.

Teaching is

guiding and facilitating learning, enabling the learner to learn,

setting the conditions for learning,

according to Brown (2007). Throughout the

teaching process, the instructor helps the students understand and clarifies difficult

concepts.

In English, vocabulary is crucial as it helps students grasp the meaning of

words.For this reason, it is crucial that students have a large vocabulary. (Hiebert, E.H

& Kamil, 2005) state,“vocabulary is a set of words for which an individual can assign

meanings when listening or reading”. Thus, in order to improve comprehension of their

explanations, teachers must use effective vocabulary-teaching strategies. There are

several approaches to teaching vocabulary, including the silent way, TPR, CLT, direct

technique, audiolingual method, grammar translation method, and so on. In the direct

technique, people pick up vocabulary or language on their own. ”Direct method is a

method of teaching a foreign language, especially a modern language through

conversation, discussion and reading in the language itself, without translation and the

study of formal grammar. The first words are though by pointing to objects, pictures

or by performing action” (Patel, M.E & Jain, 2008). As a result, the direct method—

also known as the natural method

allows language learners to appreciate the

language.

Generally speaking, vocabulary that was previously provided to pupils as

records and jargon assistance has focused on encouraging understudy to consider and

remember word connotations. This method of instruction only imparts a cursory and

superficial understanding of language. According to research conducted by the Texas

Reading Institute, children who only learn word meanings by heart usually struggle to

apply the information in definitions and frequently misunderstand what the term

means.

A term used in different contexts might have different meanings, thus just

teaching pupils the definition of a word without providing examples of its use in those

contexts won

t help them fully grasp its significance. It is challenging for learners to

employ a memorized list of terms in spoken and written language when they are taught

without regard for the context.

The greatest method for learning a word

s meaning and how it connects to

other words is to look at the context in which it appears. Furthermore, a definition-

based technique, along with its application in the content, may produce comprehensive

and flexible word meaning information.

Students start to understand how a word

s meaning may alter and shift based

on its context when they are given many sentences that employ the same term in various

ways. To fully understand a term, learners must see it in a variety of situations.

There are several approaches of teaching vocabulary than the keyword

strategy. There is still another method that is really beneficial for expanding one

s

vocabulary. This is accomplished using affixes and roots. There are two benefits for

English language learners to be aware of Latin roots and affixes. Through the use of

prefixes and suffixes, it can aid in the learning of new words by connecting them to

well-known ones. Additionally, it may be employed to verify whether an unfamiliar

has been accurately inferred from the context.

Prefixes from Latin can be found in a wide variety of terms. For instance, in

s Word Book, 433 of the 20.000 most common terms

root elements that are connected to 14,000 terms in Webster

s Collegiate Dictionary

and 100,000 words in an unabridged dictionary by looking at the most significant

prefixes and root components. 14 matters words have been created by combining these.

Learners will get familiar with the most helpful prefixes and roots by

mastering words and the meanings of their constituent elements. Three abilities are

necessary for learners to employ prefixes and roots: they must be able to split new

words into their component components, revealing the affixes and roots.

Abstract

Improving students

critical thinking skills requires an active and engaging learning

process. This involves using effective teaching materials and methods to encourage students to think
critically. The teaching and learning process goes beyond simply receiving information from
instructors; it involves various activities aimed at achieving better learning outcomes. For instance,
tasks that stimulate critical thinking and the use of diverse teaching methods and models play a
crucial role in this process. Emphasizing experiential learning is essential for gaining valuable
insights. The success or failure of a learning endeavor greatly depends on this approach. Educators
play a vital role in developing students

critical thinking abilities, given the increasing importance of

this skill in everyday life. Many aspects of daily life require critical analysis, making it particularly
crucial for students, who represent the future generation of the society.
