Learner Problems and Teaching Solutions
Issue 1. Unfamiliar vocabulary
While teaching higher- level students irrespective of 
their nationality, unfamiliar vocabulary has always been 
recognized as one of the major factors which hinders 
listening comprehension [3]. The reason for it lies in 
the authentic nature of presentations like TED Talks. 
As this genre can cover all types of topics, a listener 
may have problems with understanding colloquial 
expressions, idioms, phrasal verbs, professional jargon 
vocabulary, etc. The following issue may lead to utter 
misunderstanding of the listening passage or partial 
loss of the essential parts of the TED Talk lecture/
presentation.
Suggestion 1
Aim: Pre-teach single lexical items and multiword 
units causing problems in understanding a lecture/
presentation. (Appendix 1)
Procedure:
– Find one of the TED Talks which you like most
– If there is a script/subtitles of a TED Talk, 
read it through and think which words, chunks 
or collocations may cause breakdown in 
understanding. If it is a video, watch it to catch 
those problematic vocabulary units and write them 
out for your students.
– Give students a list of sentences with the vocabulary 
units causing problems in understanding
– In pairs students contextually try to guess the 
meanings of the words
– After students match the words with their definitions.
– Lastly, a teacher and students check their answers 
in an open-class feedback.
Evaluation:
In the bottom-up model of processing, learners 
benefit from the opportunity to investigate unfamiliar 
vocabulary. Learners think, discuss and process new 
knowledge making deductions about the information 
they are going to listen to. Additionally, working with 
unknown vocabulary decreases stress and removes 
fears of listening.
