Abstract

Mastering vocabulary is one of the most critical factors that help learners improve their language proficiency. However, this also puts pressure on learners, especially language learners. This research was carried out to investigate common vocabulary strategies students use for learning the words for the first time and methods for reinforcing the learned ones. In addition, the author tried to identify drawbacks that students deal with in vocabulary acquisition. Subsequently, recommendations are provided to address the challenges encountered in vocabulary acquisition. The researcher conducted this study by analyzing related documents, delivering survey questionnaires to 46 first-year English students from class 113221, and interviewing three Faculty of Foreign Languages teachers at UTEHY. The findings reveal a diverse range of strategies students employ for vocabulary learning, highlighting both frequently utilized and underutilized approaches. Consequently, the researcher hoped that the results of this study would provide valuable insights for both learners and teachers, enabling them to adapt and optimize their learning strategies or teaching methods for enhanced progress in vocabulary acquisition.
