Description
Learning and Teaching English in India is an empirical study on the factors influencing English language learning and teaching in India. These influencing factors include: language learning beliefs; learning styles and strategies; anxiety; and attitudes and motivation. The author explores several aspects of English language learning and teaching in the multilingual Indian context and examines whether and to what extent the variables which have been shown to influence second language learning in monolingual countries also apply to the Indian situation.
