Exploring The Challenges Of Learning And Teaching English: Perspectives From Learners And Teachers Of English Version Schools

Abstract

The objective for introducing English Version schools in Bangla medium schools is government’s concern on the nation’s human capital development. To achieve the standard of a developed country, both national and foreign curricula are implemented in the educational sector in Bangladesh. This paper emphasizes the difficulties that English language learners face in comprehending the language since EV schools do not provide enough opportunity for real-world experience and reflective activities. This research seeks to examine the challenges that students have while utilizing and comprehending English vocabulary and phrases in the context of their coursework. A qualitative data analysis approach was used to capture the thoughts and opinions of ten students from class XII in five different English Version schools. The findings of this survey reveal the participants’ attitudes, opinions, and interests on the difficulties, issues, and prospects of English-language institutions. While these schools adhere to the national curriculum, they mostly use English as the medium of teaching. Furthermore, this research has significant pedagogical implications for individuals learning the English language, as well as for instructors and professionals in the field.
