5.3. Suggestions 

 

 

This study aimed to investigate how effective the methods of teaching are, 

how successful the language students are and what the role of the language teacher is 

in speaking English. 

 

 

The sample of this study consisted of only intermediate level undergraduate 

preparatory program students of the School of Foreign Languages of DEU and EU ; 

so , the findings have validity only for the participants in the sample of this study , in 

the 2005 – 2006 academic years. The sample of the research can involve more 

participants from different levels of preparatory programs of other universities. 

 

 

In the light of the findings of the current study, certain suggestions can be 

given. 

 

---

 

 

As I stated in the previous parts, 25 % of the language learners who are 

attending an undergraduate preparatory program want to speak English. To me, the 

causes of this must be investigated. 

 

 

It is clear from the findings of this study that anxiety level of the students is 

high in English lessons. The reasons of high anxiety may be studied in another 

research. 

 

 

81,6 % of the participants say that they can not speak in English because their 

vocabulary store is not enough. The reasons of not having enough vocabulary may be 

investigated in a further study. 

 

 

Another research may focus on why the students prefer learning the structure 

of a foreign language but not speaking it. 

 

 

In another study, a research may be conducted on the relationship between the 

gender and the success in speaking skill.
