The study was conducted at Thai Nguyen University of Agriculture and  
Forestry, Academic year 2019-2020. Descriptive research design was used in  
the study. Mean, standard deviation and linear regression analysis were  
statistical tools employed in finding the mean level of the determinants of  
good Oral Communication of Advanced program (AP) students in terms of  
exposure to English language, grammar and vocabulary, mastery, passion in  
English and self-confidence; the mean level of students’ Classroom Oral  
Presentation performance in terms of diction, delivery, intonation,  
pronunciation and voice projection; and the significant effect of exposure to  
English language, grammar and vocabulary, mastery, passion in English and  
self-confidence to students’ classroom oral presentation performance.

1. Introduction  
Currently, oral presentation is one of the basic  
and important skills in the students’ studies. This  
skill is very significant for students and in  
particular those who take foreign languages  
because learning a foreign language requires  
learners’ development of confidence and enhances  
initiative. Additionally, it is a skill valuable for  
application in future jobs and of course in daily life;  
especially when English is nowadays considered as  
a global language. It is a bridge which helps people  
from different countries; different languages  
understand each other, since the main purpose of  
language is communicating. Through the use of  
English, people can see the view of others; can  
exchange ideas, opinions and thoughts.  
Presentation skills are important and crucial for  
students. It is applied to many fields of life in  
studies, job interview, and teaching. Oral  
presentations represent an opportunity for  
developing real-world communications as well as  
leadership skills [2]. Strong soft skill as oral  
presentation skill is an essential skill to obtain a job  
and thereby succeed in job career at workplace [3].  
Owning good presentation skills means that  
students have good communication skills; they  
must have confidence when presenting something  
in front of a crowd; and, they can use language  
effectively in certain situations.  
However, the problem is that many students,  
especially second-year students struggled much

when delivering presentations. It takes students lot  
This study is conducted to find out the main  
determinants relative to students’ oral presentation,  
to address the problem with the aim to help  
improving the presentation skills of the students.  
of time practicing if they want to be skillful in it.  
Most students lack the basic skills required in oral  
presentation and can’t grasp the importance of it.  
These are the deficiencies why students have  
difficulty and experiencing confusion when  
giving a presentation [4]. Moreover, many  
students are still unaware of the importance of  
presentation skills for current learning and for  
their jobs in the future.  
2. Subject and methodology  
The respondents of the study were the AP  
students at Thai Nguyen University of Agriculture  
and Forestry, Academic year 2019-2020.  
As there was assurance for validity of the major  
instrument to conduct an actual study, letters  
addressed to the principal of Thai Nguyen  
University of Agriculture and Forestry requesting  
permission to distribute the questionnaire to the  
eighty (80) student respondents.  
In Vietnam, however, this problem is even more  
serious. Aside from the term of practicing,  
Vietnamese students always have to face with many  
other difficulties when giving oral presentations. It  
cannot be denied that Vietnamese students are very  
good in English theoretical exercises they have  
mastery of grammar rules and vocabulary items yet,  
there is an in ability to use it as a medium in classroom  
oral presentation. Therefore, the problem is not lack  
of grammar or vocabulary knowledge [5].  
When the approved letter was released, the  
researcher went to different classes to administer  
the questionnaire. With the most valued help of the  
teacher in each class, the researcher made possible  
the distribution to clarify questions that were found  
highly technical in nature by the actual respondents.

a standard deviation of 0.71 with moderately  
interested verbal interpretation. The highest mean  
scores of 3.68 and 3.50 among the items discloses  
that motivated students are likely to learn more and  
learn more quickly than students who are less  
motivated. In a particular learning situation,  
students who are less motivated are likely to lose  
their attention, misbehave and cause discipline  
problems. On the contrary, the results also mentions  
that students who are more highly motivated will  
participate actively and pay more attention to a  
certain learning task or activity.

conclusions were drawn.  
1. It was found out that students’ exposure to  
English language was significant determinant of  
students’ presentation in term of voice projection,  
diction, delivery and pronunciation.
