Problems of teaching and learning in English in India

Abstract

The scenario of teaching and learning English at higher and lower level is not appreciating. Specially in backward states like Bihar and others, all the Primary schools are identical at geographically, socially and academic angle. The syllabus implemented at this level is not language oriented. Our motto should be to enhance the proficiency of the learners in the target language and thus to enable them to square up the communication skills. In this direction, the amount of effort by the local/state Govt. is negligible in improving the proficiency in the language which is on the decline.
