Abstract
The study investigated links between long term memory skills and students' abilities to learn the vocabulary of English language taught in class. The purpose of this study is to realize the relation between the left and right hemispheres on learning vocabulary. In this paper we can look at the causes of long term memory and how students can improve it through many techniques such as, Microsoft PowerPoint, Imagination, Leitner box, Pictures and drawing. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that the relation between memory and language remain poorly specified for many years. The learners learn English words by their long term memory. The study's purpose is to examine how a teacher can encourage students to communicate orally in class.
The left hemisphere keeps information for a short time but the right hemisphere keeps data for a long time in memory. In this paper, the researcher wants to study the hypothesis learning vocabulary in the second language for a long time that is possible by utilizing the right hemisphere. The researcher acquired the data collection and also data analysis of the study. Forty learners of 8 to 11 years old attended in this experiment at Amin Institute in Iran to justify methods and techniques. The teacher divided learners into two groups. In group (A), the participants (10 males and 10 females) learned with a memory enhancing method. The last result shows that the learners of group (A) have significant progress on vocabulary learning rather than the learners of group (B). The data analysis proves that use of audio visual tools improves learners' memory in learning vocabulary for life time.
