Challenges and Opportunities in Teaching English to Tribal Students
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In India, English is an official language. However, learning English presents numerous challenges for Indians. Because they have their own language for communication, tribal people confront significant challenges. English has been in existence in India for more than 200 years. It has gone through many stages of development, acceptance and rejection. Some layers of Indian society have accepted it as a mother tongue some consider this to be a second important language, while others consider it as the language of references, both in terms of rating and international level. India is a large country, and many tribes live in different lifestyles. Therefore, it is desirable to perceive the subject from a social and economic, linguistic, geographical point of view. In this paper, I purposefully limit my discussion to the challenges and opportunities of teaching English to tribal students.
