International Language English

We all know about the international language English. Now a days, it is being used in all ways of communication in all international level. Even in Bangladesh is has been a profession to teach English to Students. 

The Mother Language of Bangladesh is Bengali and there is no specification that English must be learnt in Bangladesh as first language. English was used as official language during Pakistani period in Bangladesh. It was used in administration, in Higher Education system as well as linkage language between Urdu and Bengali.

Now a days, English is being taught as foreign language. From 1992 in Bangladesh, English subject has been set as an compulsory subject besides regular subjects. As a result there are many English language training institutions like Saifurs, FM methods besides government institutions.

The teaching system includes Grammar Translation method, answering questions from reading comprehensions, paragraph writing, letter writing, composition writing. The present situation became like that the ability of English Communication is given 2nd Priority and the knowledge of society became 1st priority. The communicative teaching method is more effective to be more skilled in English Language.

If anyone ask why English should be an International language? Then the answers will come from the following explanations.

English language is being used as common language for international communication. It is being used as means of sharing views and voicing of the people all over the world. In our country like Bangladesh, unemployment problem is a big issue. The unemployed youths have lacking in communicating English Language. If they were skilled in English Language they would have been appointed in job sector. The modern age is the subject of science and technology. Most of the scientific theory and technological books are written in English. Now if any any student who has interest in science and technology will not be able to gather knowledge due to having problems in English language.

To be more efficient in Communication English Language, we should spread out the system of practicing speaking English with our surrounding people. Lack of appropriate training of the teachers is one of the reason to be not skilled in English. To address those issues both short term and long term steps should be taken.

Beside compulsory education system short term English Language Training program should be introduced by government Colleges and educational institutions. Crash program should be introduced though the whole country. To be successful in these steps both local and private initiatives are essential.

The permanent steps should be like this. The Teachers of English subject should attend all types of Communication English Language Training Program. A National English Language Center should be set up.

From the above discussion it is clear that the method of English Language learning and teaching in Bangladesh are not satisfactory. To change this situation both Government and private sectors should come forward.

Education

Education is the backbone of a nation. Following this statement, we can say that primary education is the basic learning to develop quality, mission, vision and competence. As a result, if the basic education became weak then everything will have no output or in a sense there will be no value of that education. The current situation of primary education in Bangladesh is well organized except some shortcomings. Lack of consciousness of guardians in local village about education is one of the shortcomings to build up a strong nation in future.


In recent years, it has been notified that the primary education in Bangladesh has developed a lot than previous times. Compulsory primary education is one of the initiatives taken by Bangladeshi Government which was very effective in case of that situation.

There are many barriers in the development of Bangladeshi Educations. The problems are discussed in the below.

Fifty percent of Primary education institutions are financed and run by Government. The rest of them are run by Non Government Organizations (NGOs)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-governmental_organization. The expenditure per student in Bangladesh is 23$ where the other countries has average 46$. So it is clear that, the financial expenditure regarding Primary Education in Bangladesh is imbalanced.

In addition to this, though the rate of Primary Education has increased a lot, but in terms of quality it can be considered as ineffective in case of few cases. There is a discrimination between rural and urban education. The basic knowledge in urban areas students are more effective than the students of rural areas students. This is because, in rural areas it is observed that, lack of teachers, educational instruments are some reasons.

Furthermore, the ratio of Teacher and student is quite surprising comparing the ratio in some other poor countries. Most of the teachers have lack of training, skills as well as delivering quality education. Moreover, the rate of attending class is low, besides the materials for education are not enough for the students. On the demand side, poverty and illiteracy of parents are encouraging children to be absent in class.

In connection with this, the difference between governmental and non governmental educational institutions regarding quality and management are huge.Shortage of funds and improper use of available resources are also causes low quality.

To overcome the above mentioned problems, first of all we should decentralized administration and financial management system. Only giving education is not everything. Improving quality in education system is essential for us. To achieve that target we should observe the situation of other countries educational system from top to bottom.

The list of competencies should be reorganized. Measurement of those competencies should be introduced. Creative and problem solving issues should be exercise besides usual education. The number skilled teachers should be increased. To be more efficient the teachers and educational officials should attend different types training programs. Supply of new text books and notepad should be ensured for poor students who have no ability to collect them or purchase them. There is system in our country that those who are taking part in primary education will get food. It should be continued and it should be confirmed that students are getting their food for education. Overall educational planning and management should be more organized to tackle everything every situation with a strict and effective hand.


It is not possible only for Government to tackle the problems regarding primary education. It is our duty to help the government to face effectively the problems of education.The Non Government Organization and Civil Organizations should come forward with effective programs of mass education.
