system and other kinds of digital devices. It makes the overall lecture
and environment interesting and effective to the students.

Mostly the teachers faced this problem in teaching the English

language. The wrong syllabus is given to them to teach the students of
the English language.

The teachers teach the wrong syllabus will make negative impressions
on the students.

And by this, the students cannot learn and speak the English
language.

5. Limited Time for Lecture to Teach:

Time is the most important thing in learning the English language. It
takes time for the teachers to observe their students and teach them
at their level. The time of the class is very less for the teachers to
teach the English language.

This one of the most difficult tasks for the teachers to teach in less
time.

This is probably not possible for the teachers to complete the topics of
their lectures in less time, which is not enough.

Students hijack the lessons. Mostly the students are not interested in
learning the English language. They hijack the lessons and do other
kinds of activities and the English learning process defeated.

teaching the English language. It defeated all the learning process of
learning the English language.

8. Using Other Languages in the Classrooms:

Speaking other languages or speaking in the native language is the
most noticeable issue faced by English teachers.
For the students, it’s very easy to speak in their native language or
other languages which they can speak easily instead of the English
language.

It’s very frustrating for the students trying to speak the language and
think the words and sentences to speak which they didn’t know.

It’s very easy for them to communicate in their native language or the
language they already have experience with.

This is the most common and big problem faced by the English
teachers in teaching the English language to the students in which the
English language is not their native language.

Another noticeable problem faced by the teachers is the students
completely depend on the teachers. They didn’t try to learn and speak
themselves.

Those students every time look to the teachers for helping them in
learning and giving them the correct answers.

They didn’t try to make words and correct sentences in speaking the
English language.

By this problem, the students didn’t learn the technical terms and
conditions of how using different kinds of tenses and words of the
English language in speaking.
10. Students Bored and not Interested in Learning
English:
Students getting bored and not interesting in learning the English
language is also a problem faced by teachers.

Sometimes the students are not interested in learning and attending

the lectures of the English language. Then they try to do other
activities.

doing other non-sense activities during the lecture.

students in the English classes belong to different backgrounds.

areas. Where there is no scope of learning the English language. it’s
very difficult for them to learn the English language.

Mostly they are unable to learn the English language. Some of them
have the capabilities of learning the English language.

keep all the class going in the same way.
Solutions for the Problems Faced by Teachers
in Teaching English Langauge:
1. Educational Competitions in the Classrooms:

language. it forces the students to learn the English language, like
debates, quizzes, etc.

Competitions encourage the students to learn more and more and win
the competitions from the other fellow students.

It helps a lot the teachers to teach the English language to the

students whose English language is not their native language.

Different kinds of Competitions between the students make learning

the English language interesting and encourage the students to take
part in the competitions and win from their fellows.

Competitions make teaching the English language easier for the

teachers. Teachers have to arrange competition sessions between the
students.

2. Using Multimedia During Lecture:

Mostly the teachers of the English language use the old and traditional
methods in teaching.
But the new devices and gadgets which are specially made for
educational purposes can better the teaching and learning of the
English language.

Teachers should use multimedia devices in the classroom in their

lectures. It makes learning the English language more interesting and
understandable for the students.

Because students can easily get the point and understand by the visual
images, videos and sounds, etc. instead of written in the books.

3. Designing Good Syllabus:

Making a good design of the syllabus plays a very important role in
learning the English language. The syllabus is a kind of planner of the
course that will be taught and learn in the course step by step.

A good design of the syllabus shows the quality of the course to study
and on the other hand, a bad syllabus makes the negative impressions
on the English learning students.

The organization and the teachers need to make a good design of the
syllabus which is complete and easy to understand for learning the
English language.

The syllabus is basically a way for the teachers and also for the
students that what they are studying in the course one by one and
what to study next.
So, making a good design of the syllabus solves a lot of problems for
the teachers in teaching the English language.

4. Conversations sessions Between Students and

Teachers:
It’s very difficult for the students to learn and speak the English
language fluently because the English language is not the native
language of most of the students.

The mother language or the native language of the students they learn
from their parents.

There is no need for syllabus and grammar rules to think and making
sentences and correct words before speaking the native language.

It can be learned from speaking and conversation with their parents.

So, speaking and conversation play a very important role in learning

the English language. The teachers have to arrange the conversational
sessions between the students.

The students feel more comfortable with their friends, so leave the
students to start a conversation with their friends and fellows,

By this, they can easily understand and learn the English language and
also can practice speaking the English language.
Most of the successful institutes of learning the English language
mostly focus on the conversation sessions in learning the English
language.

Games are a kind of activity which engaged the students mostly. It
motivates the students to play and make fun of it.

Games also play a very important role in education and learning. There
is a lot of educational games which can be played in the classrooms
with the students.

Games help a lot in building vocabulary. There is a game of placing the

missing word in different kinds of sentences. It builds the vocabulary a
lot.

Students understand the types of words and its meaning and the
structure of their placing in a sentence.

Teachers should be used to play games in the classroom during the

learning of the English language.

6. Managing the Rules of the Classroom and Time Table:

Teachers should make the rules and time table of the classrooms, the
students must have to follow them.

Rules and discipline play a very important role in learning the English
language.
The students have to switch off their mobiles, not to speak with their
fellow ones, come on time to the class for lectures and do their
homework on time and submit to the teacher.

If students break one of the rules in it then fined him/her. Or contact

their parents.

7. Arranged Motivational Sessions for the Students:

In every field, students need the motivation to achieve their goals and
step forward toward their success.

Sometimes the students distract from their goals to achieve. Then

motivational speeches and other motivational activities help them back
to the track.

The teachers have to arrange the motivational sessions for the

student’s ones in a month to keep them on track to learn the English
language.
