Because of the restricted moment, understanding and size of a minor thesis, the author was unable to conduct the experiment on a bigger scale as well as being unable to teach the classes on my own or to observe many more lessons so that the findings might not be more or less accurate. In addition, the research topics (40 freshmen at the College of Mechanics and Metallurgy) are not representative of all learners at the College of Mechanics and Metallurgy, so the findings may not be applicable to teaching accounting learners vocabulary.
