    (centre universitaire Salhi Ahmed Naama, 2024) Israe DERBALE; Ines Riham BENTAMEUR
    Teaching the reading skill is greatly significant for developing students’ language proficiency and acquiring new vocabulary. Actually, the present study aims to investigate the effectiveness of intensive reading in improving vocabulary acquisition. To meet this end, an exploratory case study research was conducted during the academic year 2023/2024. In fact, a mixed method approach was employed in which a questionnaire and an interview were designed as tools to collect the data. The questionnaire was addressed to first year LMD students in the Department of English at the Center University Salhi Ahmed, Naama and the interview was designed to teachers. The obtained data were interpreted and analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The most significant findings of this research work revealed that students’ vocabulary acquisition is greatly affected by intensive reading. Accordingly, some recommendations are suggested to help EFL students to overcome or at least reduce the difficulties that they may encounter when reading intensively so that their vocabulary will be expanded and enriched.
