Abstract
Among English teaching methodologies and approaches, task-based approach has an important role in EFL classrooms. It provides learners chances to practise the target language which can be applied into real-life situations. In addition, this approach appreciates the role of learners in performing learning tasks and brings more positive results than traditional methods (Amer & Demirel, 2020). In reality, this approach has been gaining popularity among Vietnamese language teachers and learners. As such, this study aims to investigate English majors’ perceptions towards the use of task-based approach in learning English vocabulary. 150 respondents were randomly selected from five classes at Nong Lam University (NLU), Vietnam. The research instrument employed in this study was the questionnaire and interview. The findings showed that a vast number of students were positively taking part in classroom activities and felt motivated to learn English vocabulary by using this approach. Based on the findings, some implications are made to English teachers and students at NLU.
