Since the function of English as a linguistic communication of international communicating has been widespread rapidly in educational systems around the universe, instruction of English as a 2nd or foreign linguistic communication has become an progressively important undertaking ( Richards, 2001 ) . Therefore, many states in the Earth have been working difficult to guarantee their citizens ' equal English proficiency, which is necessary for their societal economic development. To make their ends, English has been included as a comparatively of import topic in each state 's national academic course of study. As a portion of educational development, effectual and qualified instructors are truly important in bettering pupils ' academic public presentation and educational system ( Shishavan & A ; Sadeghi, 2009 ) .

In Cambodia context, how to learn English efficaciously is a common concern among English pedagogues, instructors, and other relevant stakeholders.
