A large and rich vocabulary is one of the most valuable tools we can provide students, benefiting not only their education but their lives in general. However, many students struggle to understand the connections between different parts of a text and to speak and communicate effectively in English. This research investigates the strategies EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers employ to enhance students' vocabulary knowledge. Additionally, it aims to identify the vocabulary learning strategies EFL students use to improve their linguistic competence. The study employs a quantitative approach through interviews and questionnaires, targeting teachers and students in the Department of Foreign Languages at Ahmed SALHI University Center of Naama. A random sample of thirty-six students completed the questionnaire, and eight teachers participated in the interviews. The findings indicate that EFL teachers extensively use various vocabulary teaching strategies, while EFL students moderately use vocabulary learning strategies.enVocabulary TeachingEnglish as foreign languages (EFL)Vocabulary Learning Strategie.Exploring Pedagogical Strategies for vocabulary Acquisition : A Case Study of First-Year LMD Students at Ahmed Salhi Univesity Center , NaamaThesis
