dc.description.abstract Among numerous applications which have been developed to help students improve their vocabulary, Quizlet is a useful tool which students can use on their laptops or download freely on their phones. As many researches have found significant improvement in students who use Quizlet for their vocabulary training, this paper aims to find out whether Quizlet can also enhance the vocabulary acquisition of Vietnamese non-English major freshmen at Van Lang university, and what their attitudes towards this tool are. The study involved 60 students which were selected according to a Two-group Quasi-Experimental Design: experimental and control groups. A regular teaching approach was applied to both groups for the first 5 weeks, then Quizlet was presented to the experimental group while no change of teaching method was given to those in the control group for the next 5 weeks. A pretest and post-test were conducted to compare the students’ performance in two groups before and after using Quizlet. At the end of the course, a survey was carried out to experimental students to learn their views of Quizlet. Some pedagogical recommendations for teaching vocabulary with Quizlet were also provided. After analyzing the results, it was found out that the students in the experimental groups made significantly more progress than those in the control group. Additionally, the survey also showed that the students were willing to use Quizlet to improve their vocabulary in the future.
