Common Problems Associated with Teaching Vocabulary to A2 Learners at Schools

Abstract

Most graduates of Uzbek schools, finding themselves in an English-speaking country, are unable to talk with local residents even on elementary topics. After all, in a modern school, children study a foreign language for ten years! If ten years of regular classes do not allow a child to master language skills to the extent that would allow them to apply them in practice, then this state of affairs cannot be considered acceptable. The situation can be changed by realizing some fundamental misconceptions inherent in the vast majority of school teachers of English. Thus, this article examines common problems associated with teaching vocabulary to students at level A2 in schools in Uzbekistan.
