Type: article
Abstract: The aim of this research is to investigate how debate techniques can help improve confidence in speaking English for Vietnamese college students. The study took place over 15 weeks, with 80 students from Cao Thang Technical College participating. The information obtained from speaking exams, interviews, questionnaires, student replies, and self-evaluations was examined using both qualitative and quantitative methods. Both the test results and the reactions from the students show that the debate strategy increased their confidence when speaking. Additionally, the data shows that their speaking proficiency has increased significantly. The participants' experiences with different learning difficulties also provide insightful recommendations on how teachers and students should work together to adopt them in other courses.
