Abstract

Language is an art that helps to exhibit one's longings, expectations, thoughts, ideas and suggestions through the process of communication. Communication is basically an exchange of information and is a social skill. Language learning is acquisition of skills whereas subject learning is acquiring knowledge on the subject. Subject knowledge is acquired through language skills. Skills cannot be taught. It has to be practiced. There are various methods of learning a language. The possible way of English language learning is that of learning in a classroom. Classroom teaching and learning process does not yield proper result. This is because of disinterestedness of students and teacher's way of teaching English language as a grammatical subject. The best way of solving the problem is to involve the learners and get interested in what is being taught. The different methodologies such as technology based, activity based, outcome based teaching and learning are practiced at present. The methodologies and the teaching sources should cater to the needs and interests of the learners. The prime aim is to enhance the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. To master these skills, one should know grammar. But it is quite evident to see the second language learners stumbling a lot to internalize the grammatical rules. This paper aims at proposing an innovative and interest-oriented language teaching and learning technique which specifies the wants and needs of the learners in terms of grammar, vocabulary, functions, notions and applications. This priori approach is introduced through integration of skills. The basics of grammar are very much needed to make communication self-expressive. When learners are given such activities it kindles the spirit of involvement and motivates them to comprehend the grammatical rules easily. The activities proposed in this paper certainly do accelerate interest and remain as an effective and successful practice serving the purpose.
