ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

As my academics and internship experience are successful, I express my deepest

appreciation to all those who provided me the chance and steerage.

First and foremost, there are certainly plausible reasons for my sincere thanks to Ph.D. Ly

Thi My Hanh, who is my direct instructor, delicately instruct me and helps me a lot with not only

useful advice but also clear methods, which successfully helps me in writing the thesis. I feel so

fortunate to have such a kind instructor like her.

I would like to express my distinguished appreciation to HCMC Open University as well

as the School of Advanced Study have trained me well so I can get the opportunity to this thesis.

Furthermore, I also owe my gratitude to my 112 SAS EFL first-year students that I conducted this

research study for their voluntary and active participation. I particularly would like to thank them

for allowing me to carry out the study.

Last but not least, I might prefer to extend my devout thanks to my beloved family,

relatives, and friends for their love, care, support, and encouragement, without their presence and

emotional support, the writing of this analysis report would are abundant tougher and virtually

not possible. Thus, I give thanks to all of them.
