Vocabulary/Lexis: An Introduction

Page 2: Teaching vocabulary in TEFL

Vocabulary is essential to convey meaning. A student can’t convey all that much without

grammar, but can’t convey anything without the use of vocabulary.

A large proportion of vocabulary work is taught as part of either a reading or listening

skills lesson. Students may encounter new vocabulary during the course of a skill lesson

and you will need to select the vocabulary which is essential for understanding the tasks

set.

Pre-teaching new vocabulary will usually ensure that activities and tasks go ahead with limited disruption and a clear understanding

of what is required of the students.

add-on to a skills lesson.
