ENHANCING QUALITY OF ENGLISH TEACHING

“We need quality education which depends on the quality of teaching and learning. Improvement in teaching quality is one of the most important issues in all disciplines of the studies. For this learned, skilled, dedicated, oriented, self- motivated and committed teachers are needed who would be able to transform the classroom into a wonder-room (wonderful place for learning). Teaching quality can also be upgraded through peer review of teaching, involvement of peers in learning (Collaborative Learning) and feedback given by students. The practice of appointing a Supervisor for a new teacher as in the United States should be implemented in India. Opportunities must be provided to the teachers to participate in in-service training programmes. Quality is never an accident, it is to be practiced. Teachers, policy makers, Universities and the Governments would take active steps for enhancing quality in teaching. This paper attempts at making some suggestions for enriching the quality of teaching, particularly in English and of all subjects in general”.
