This class was taken as the sample randomly through the cluster random sampling technique from 11 classes. To collect data, the pre-test and the post-test procedures were used. This study's findings reveal that the college students’ vocabulary mastery after receiving the treatment made positive progress. The average of the student's performance from the pre-test to the post-test can be demonstrated.
