3.1.2.4 In terms of the reading texts

Most of the students claimed that they had no idea about the reading texts in the course

books ( 54 %), and 20 % of the students admitted that the reading texts were too

difficult. The idea from students was that: there were some banking operation in the

reading texts which were non- applicable in Viet Nam or which they had not studied so

they could not understand. This is due to the fact that most of the books used in teaching

reading English for Banking at HUI Nghe An campus were completely adopted from

foreign sources such as the US and Great Britain. That was, the books were not designed

for Vietnamese students whose banking system was a lot less modern in comparison

with those the book were intended. This of course created difficulties to both students

and teachers at HUI Nghe An campus who are almost strangers in real banking field and

they surely need some proper adjustment.
