SHORT ESSAY ON IMPORTANCE OF ENGLISH EDUCATION
The study of English as the
second language is essential, especially in this age of globalisation despite
what some politicians may say. From the pragmatic point of view English should
receive a great boost, for it serves as a window to the world. It is a
well-known fact that the legacy of English language has left an indelible
imprint on the India psyche. Hence, we cannot treat English just as any
other foreign language. Secondly, the entire spectrum of education and
philosophy, science and technology and almost all other fields of study can be
better understood through this language. Besides, in multilingual country like
ours, English may wonderfully serve as an effective link language. The bizarre
controversy over the study of English is still on, but the move to teach the
language right from the pre-primary standard has gained momentum in view of its
advantages. It is baseless to think that the study of English will hamper, in
any way, the progress of our native languages and dialects.
