A semi-structured interview was employed to collect the students feedback about the course they participated in. The findings revealed that the PBL lessons could enhance Chinese vocabulary learning achievement of the participants. The Post-test mean score was 44.76, that was higher than that of the pre-test (18.23). The one Sample T-test revealed that there was a significant value of p<0.05, thus confirming that the effectiveness of PBL approach. The questionnaire data showed that all items were ranked at the very high level. This means the students were satisfied with the approach used by the researcher.
