Abstract

Dictation has been used in the field of language learning
for several years. However, most of the language instructors and
methodologists regard this method as useless and out-of-date. Indeed
dictation is a teaching technique which enables English teachers to
focus on the language proficiency of their students . This paper explains
what the teachers should do to help the students enhance enthusiasm
and confidence for learning , stimulate learning motivation , reduce or
eliminate their difficulty and take measures to improve their own
language skills . This paper aims at investigating the relationship
between mastery of dictation and university students' achievement in
spelling which in order to raise students' efficiency in vocabulary and
texts. This paper consists of three sections, the first as an introduction,
and the second deals with literature review and the third is the
conclusion.
