Abstract
This logical study examined the influence of illustrated English language dictionary on students’ achievement in mathematics in Sharjah school in UAE. The principal study utilized a quasi-experimental research design. A sample of 120 respondents out of 240 target population were selected using Sloven’s formula. The researcher employed sampling strategies like simple random sampling and cluster sampling techniques to garner data for the research study.

Data was analyzed using inferential statistics, independent t-tests, paired sample t-tests and statistical product service solutions with the significance level below 0.05 .The research study findings came up with a significant correlation between illustrated English language dictionary and students’ achievement in mathematics in Sharjah School in UAE. It was therefore concluded that the dictionary contains various activities through which students are trained to predict new information from the given information, which has contributed to the development of their level of awareness of relationships. The program encouraged students to organize and sequence symbolic verbal treatment, which contribute to the development of their mathematical proof skill. The systematic research study recommended that the Student teachers in Universities and Colleges should be trained to deal with illustrated English dictionary system in their training institutions so that this can act as an impetus to improved students’ learning in many subjects including mathematics.
