教授英语作为外语（EFL）是一项充满挑战的事业。英语作为外语（EFL）教师必须学会不断适应学生的需求。很多时候，这意味着在课堂上处理各种各样的问题，其中许多都是常见的问题。词汇学习涉及激活学生对可能学习的单词的理解和使用，以提高他们的语言能力，目标是逐年增加学生的接受性和表达性词汇，以支持阅读理解、听力、口语和享受。由于词汇学习对于获得目标语言能力至关重要，因此需要调查学习者对目标语言和母语使用的普遍态度。因此，本研究旨在探讨外语学习者的态度和成就与英语词汇教学和学习技巧之间的关系。本研究的数据收集自孟加拉国城市和农村地区的 10 所高中。受访者是 100 名以 200 分作为必修科目学习英语的高中生。通过问卷调查和文献分析收集数据。调查显示，大多数受访者对孤立和上下文学习新单词持积极态度。该研究还揭示了在情况需要时使用学习者母语的必要性。
Teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) is a challenging venture. English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher must learn to constantly adapt to their students' needs. Many times, this means dealing with a variety of problems in the classroom, many of which are all too common occurrences. Vocabulary learning involves activating students’ apprehension and use of words that the students are likely to learn to improve their language proficiency, with the goal of increasing students’ receptive and expressive vocabulary, year by year, in order to support reading comprehension, listening, speaking and enjoyment. As vocabulary learning is essential in achieving the target language competence, the common attitudes of the learners towards the target language and the use of the mother tongue need to be investigated. Thus, this study purported to examine how foreign language learners’ attitudes and achievements are associated with vocabulary teaching and learning techniques in English language. The data for the present study were collected from 10 higher secondary colleges, located in urban and rural areas in Bangladesh. The respondents were 100 higher secondary students studying English for 200 marks as a compulsory study subject. Data were collected through questionnaire survey and analysis of the documents. The investigation revealed that the majority of the respondents were positive attitudes towards learning new words in isolation and in context. The study also disclosed the need for the use of the learners’ mother tongue when situation demanded.
