The purpose of this study was to design a remedial program to develop
prospective Egyptian English majors’ lexical collocations and semantic
translation skills. The participants of the study were a group of 35 fourth
year English majors, Basic Education, Faculty of Education, Ain Shams
University. The study was based on the preexperimental one group
design. Instruments included an interest survey and a questionnaire to
identify students’ interests, expectations and needs, a pre-post translation
test and a satisfaction questionnaire. The program lasted for 43 hours in
total. Findings indicated that students’ lexical collocations skills- semantic
translation -from Arabic into English were enhanced as indicated by their
posttest scores; however, the delayed test did show that significance.
Moreover, students showed a significant satisfaction with the suggested
program. The suggested program is an interdepartmental effort between
the English Language and Literature Department and EFL Instruction
Department.
