Description
This study explores two approaches for matching 304 Vietnamese tertiary learners with lexically appropriate reading materials: Vocabulary mastery level (mastery level) and text-range vocabulary size (text-range size) approaches. Learners' vocabulary tests and reading comprehension assessments were used to group learners. Findings showed that the text-range vocabulary size approach more accurately matched learners with comprehensible texts. The study highlights practical insights for teachers and researchers in selecting lexically appropriate reading materials for language learners.
