About of the Workshop

English in India is a global language in a multilingual country. The need for English today has grown beyond the academic needs and it has now become a matter of fulfilling people’s aspirations. This presents a unique challenge for teachers as we strive to help these students achieve fluency and accuracy in English language that will help them in their academic, professional and social sphere. So, too, as teachers, we need to recognize our challenge to go beyond imparting knowledge. Helping students learn effectively is our challenge as teachers. Effective teaching is not just knowledge dissemination. Identifying effective teaching strategies, therefore, is our challenge as we both assess the effectiveness of our current teaching style and consider innovative ways to improve our teaching to match our students' learning styles. This workshop for the teachers of English aims to explore different teaching strategies, analyze what works, and take action to modify or synthesize our teaching to help our students learn in a way that works for us as well as our students. The sessions will provide valuable direction for English language teachers in India. 
The major thrust areas of the workshop are proven strategies for teaching listening, speaking, reading, writing, grammar and vocabulary.
