ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING AND ACQUISITION: IMPLEMENTING A SYSTEMATIC BLEND OF DEDUCTIVE AND INDUCTIVE METHOD IN NON-NATIVE COUNTRIES

Abstract

Studying English as a peremptory subject is unavoidable in non-native countries like Pakistan, India and the list goes on. This educational escapade continues for more than ten years; however, even after studying English for many years, unfortunately, many students remain deprived of using English language effectively which further harms their social networking, educational endeavors, and professional growth. Academically, English is a substantial source to grasp knowledge about other subjects, whose language is English, with less dependency on teachers. Clinical investigation reveals that the most devastating factor is to teach English as a ‘Subject’ not as a ‘Language’. Furthermore, the researchers have found ‘Grammar Translation Method’ a root cause of the students’ failure to acquire English as a foreign language.

Furthermore, the researchers have found ‘Grammar Translation Method’ a root cause of the students’ failure to acquire English as a foreign language. To surmount this predicament, the researchers propounds a systematic blend of ‘Deductive’ and ‘Inductive’ method of teaching and acquiring English. Therefore, the core-motive of this experiment, which was conducted in Pakistan, is to enhance students’ English language flair. This three-month experimental study had been graduated into three sections: pre-test, experimental period and post-test. This new experiment proved to be a promising step for teaching and acquiring English as a foreign language in non-native countries.
