Abstract

In this study, Mime Games, one of the vocabulary teaching methods, was researched and studies were conducted on whether word games are useful or not. As educators, we have witnessed all kinds of students in our lessons, like self-motivated, unrelated to classes, or unwilling. The main purpose of doing this research is to motivate students among the groups who are reluctant and unrelated to the lesson by teaching vocabulary with fun. Therefore, we researched the role of Mime Games in teaching English to EFL learners. In order to get accurate results, a face-to-face survey and a questionnaire were applied to collect students’ thoughts about word games. As a result of the research and applications, it was observed that the students were more successful and motivated when they were learning with the games.
