REMEDIES OVER THE PROBLEM OF TEACHING AND LEARNING ENGLISH TO THE RURAL STUDENTS IN INDIA

Author - Dr. G. D. Kokane

Abstract - Students in rural India possess immense hidden potentialities like the urban students. They do not lag behind in any manner as compared to the students living in urban areas. The difference is in the availability of quality education. Good teachers create good students. Teacher training is an important part of education process. Government should implement appropriate measures to provide quality education in villages. Education is the prerequisite for life of dignity and standard. Students from the rural background face obstacle of low confidence which results in poor performance of the students.
