Level of Performance of Fourth Year Public Highschool Students Towards English Proficiency in Physics

English language becomes a part of our life in various aspects such as business, education, economic, social culture and others. As we known that our country is one of favorite destination for the tourists and the language that we use to communicate with them is English language which is widely spoken. Since English has influent in our life and it still have problems in both teachers and students. The main reason that we always have heard from the others is we have our own language, we can communicate with other people in country easily so, it is unnecessary to learn other language. It is wrong idea of those people, but the true reason maybe come from our teaching approach that different areas also

Many kids in school are wanting to learn a new language away from their native language but many students are wondering what language is going to help them the most in the future. English is the clear answer for these students that are wondering what new language to learn for a number of reasons. Through different articles through the book “Language: A Reader for Writers” it discusses how language is the most successful and most useful language to speak. College students who want to learn a second language, that have not learned English, should learn English because it is the most widely used language in the world and it is the most useful language to learn.

Bilingualism in regards to the curriculum, as many conceive, is not implemented solely for students that are lacking proficiency in English, and need to take English as a Second Language (ESL) course, these students are referred to as limited English proficiency (LEP) students. In other nations around the world multilingualism is normal and many students are exposed to three languages that are incorporated into their curriculum (Datta 2003,p.1). Many classrooms incorporate a second language along with English to enhance the lessons being taught with in the activity. There is such a great need for bilingual education as well as ESL classes. There are over 2.1 million public school students in the United States that are LEP students. Thirteen percent of schools that have LEP students enrolled do not offer any programs to help the students with their deficiencies. How can a student be expected to learn if they cannot understand what the teacher is saying? Fortunately the majority of schools that have LEP students do receive either ESL classes or Bilingual education. Among these schools that have programs, seventy-six percent provide ESL programs, and thirty-six percent have Bilingual education. There are only about one-third of public schools that offer both bilingual education and ESL programs (National Center for Educational

Introduction: The importance of English language acquisition as a stepping-stone for proficiency in school subjects cannot be over emphasized. The knowledge of English is important both for educational, national and economic development of a country. English is the official language of administration and commerce and also a major language of science. It should be further highlighted at the need for improving the quality of spoken and written English language among children. Although English language retains its dominant position in the education delivery system, the thrust of our educational language policy is the use of the mother tongue or the language of the

Bilingual education is an academic approach followed by some instructors, which is using the native language for new English learners for instructions. Within the international context, bilingual education has become a necessity due to the high number of immigration, colonialism and the great number of local languages (Yushau & Bokhari, 2005). This approach in instruction has reflected back positively or negatively in many dimensions such as social, psychological, and pedagogical. However, bilingual instruction is an effective way of teaching English as a second language, in case of well implementation it can be seen as an educational advantage. This literature covers a wide variety of opinions that revolves around a topic that researchers find it controversial, this review will highlight the major question and findings which emerge in

First of all, in my country, the students have studied the lessons and special program before they come to the US. So, they have English classes to be able to get in US. Moreover, in my country, the students just have three years of High School, but then, they have two years of studying about English for students who want to go abroad to continue studying College. Almost students have completed four years of high school studies in order to qualify for admission to a College in US. Also, in my country, at school, there are a lot of tests of English as a Foreign Language would help to establish the ability to succeed in an American college. Because the English program is worthy as a requirement for entrance into US. For this reason, in my country there are English language schools or centers to help improve English language ability in English for students. Today, the School of English or English center opened in my country very much. Furthermore, the program teaches

Language represents human’s experiences and different fields hold different ways of language using. The language of science actively constructs scientific reality, i.e. a way of looking at the world, the roles assigned to readers and the way of organizing information (LING337-nominalisation). However, science may be presented diversely according to the different intended audience, purposes and modes. Three texts chosen in this paper are all concerned with the same scientific reality, but their language differs widely. The ways in which science are presented in this three texts largely depends on their audience, purposes and modes. To put it another way, language of science in the chosen texts

Language is a key part of any family, community, culture and the human race. Without language the world today would be much different. From cavemen, to the Egyptian use of hieroglyphics, to Old English, to more than 6,500 languages spoken around the world today, the advances that humans have made in language is remarkable and inspiring. The ability to speak, read, write and understand more than one language is also remarkable and expands the liberties in life, especially for young people. High school students should be required to take at least two years of a foreign language class in order to graduate, as many recent studies support the benefits of doing so. Students who have learned a foreign language in high school have proven to have a

This study is based on two reports; that the inability of the minority non-English-speaking groups to concurrently learn both the subject matter and English contributes to their school difficulties, and that it is possible to successfully handle both. The purpose of the report is to examine the contradictions between these two schools of thought. The study also considers the possibility of implementing the successful immersion programs on the minority groups.

English being the second language in most of the countries across Asia, Europe, and Africa, for students, who aspire to pursue a Master’s, say MS or an MBA from USA, UK, or Australia, it is mandatory to demonstrate their proficiency in English language. Since Master degree courses in native English speaking countries are offered in English language, it becomes a pre-requisite for students, from non-English speaking countries, to prove themselves capable of handling the Master’s study. Some of the well-known test of English, which are recognized by the Universities across these countries include IELTS and TOEFL. Recently, one of the renowned education publishing companies known as Pearson’s Education, also entered into the field of testing and certification for English Language Proficiency called Pearson Test of English (PTE).

With the relentless internationalization and marketization of higher education in the past several decades, English has been more and more used as an instruction at universities in the world, also Chinese colleges have become internationalized, that students can use English in different subjects more and more. Although Ministry of Education of China has chosen teaching bilingual language only at the turn of the century, other developed countries started teaching bilingual education several decades ago. Because the bilingual education in colleges and universities of China faces kinds of problems, the bilingual education does not achieve an ideal effect under many conditions (Gu, T., 2010); however, there are several analyses that can better understand problems in bilingual education in Chinese colleges for discerning the relationship between bilingual education and teaching foreign language, lacking qualified original English teaching materials, and limited English proficiency students.

From my observations, the first weak point of the textbook English 6 is lacking of information about the authors' formal education, experience in teaching, administration, curriculum and materials development experience. Undoubtedly, it is a main factor which shows a vivid picture of the authors having a recognized standing in the field of education and a good reputation for producing innovative and efficient materials. For instance, on the contrary, publishers often attach the authors’ views on language, methodology or teaching and learning theories. However, the textbook English 6 does not present things mentioned above.

Language acquisition is an important process in every person’s life. As the world becomes more interconnected, there is increasing need for humanity to communicate with each other. According to Chang (2011), language is the avenue through which information is shared. The question of “which language” has baffled the academic community over time and across space. In the final analysis, it appears that the language that most people in the world should speak actually has political connotations. Evidence links the modern use of English to the European colonization and expansion in the last few centuries. While the issue is not whether or not English should be used at the global stage, most people in the modern age would agree that there is need for a standard language (Van Nguyen, 2010). English as a second language (ESL) is taught differently across the world. Even in regions that do not speak English as a native language (ENL) such as Asia, learning English is essential not only for understanding the rules of syntax but also being able to communicate with other people across the globe correctly and with ease. The grammar translation method is too idealistic while the communicative language teaching method appears to be more useful in a practical situation; but a combination of both methods would produce better results.

The scope of this study is wide as it is concerned to education and its prevailing examination
