Abstract
The objective of this study is to test the effectiveness of a corpus frequency word list on academic writing skills of higher secondary EFL learners. EFL faces challenges in acquiring proficiency in academic writing skills, primarily due to a lack of core vocabulary. This challenge hampers their academic performance. A quantitative design was employed, with 30 EFL learners divided into experimental and control groups. The former received instruction on frequent words, while the latter received traditional. The study’s findings found a significant improvement in vocabulary scores in the experimental group compared to the control group, indicating the potential of frequency-based vocabulary intervention in academic writing skills among higher secondary EFL learners. The findings recommend incorporating frequency-based vocabulary instruction into EFL curricula.
