Abstract

Teaching reality shows that French majored students, especially D1 students (with English input), have many difficulties in acquiring and interacting in the target language in Language Practice modules. To find out the causes, our research team has conducted a survey on learners’ awareness and actual use of French in teaching/ learning foreign language in general and in Language Practice 4 in particular. The results of the online questionnaire survey of 43 second year students of the academic year 2019-2020 and in-depth interviews with 6 lecturers teaching Language Practice show that most of them are aware of the positive impact of using the target language on the process of thinking, comprehending, practicing and verbal interaction. But in fact, frequency of using the target language is very limited and has many shortcomings. The study also proposes some recommendations to increase the use of the target language more rationally and effectively.
