Mixed methods were employed and a group of 20 working staff who were working in a perfume company in Thailand was involved in the study. Four Lesson Plans of 120 minutes each (1 Lesson Plan = 2 Sessions) incorporating role play activities were used and taught for 8 sessions (2 sessions per week) with 20 participants within the time period of a month. The researcher collected the quantitative data through need analysis questionnaire, pretest as well as posttest scores and a qualitative data through focus group discussion (FGD). The quantitative data were analyzed by paired sample t-test based on mean, standard deviation and significant value. The outcome of the learning achievement test score analysis revealed significant difference between the posttest mean (x ̅ =3.51) and pretest mean (x ̅=1.16) with the mean difference of 2.35. The significance (P) values 0.01 which indicated significant increase in the posttest scores as compared to those of pretest.
