A. INTRODUCTION TO ENGLISH LANGUAGE AS A TOOL FOR GLOBAL COMMUNICATION
The importance of English Communication is to communicate effectively and no communication is possible if one doesn’t get a chance to communicate. It is natural that the demand for communication is high in this ever changing world. English plays a crucial role in communication and is no doubt the foremost and most important tool of communication all over the world. Individually everybody should strive hard to acquire very good communication skills which are the most important prerequisites to excel in one’s career.
The main purpose of English to get command over the communication skills everybody including native speakers makes mistakes. Without error no true learning can take place. Since language learning is a slow and continuous process, errors are inevitable. We have to create English speaking environments even an child starts speaking in a particular language after listening to it for many months our people and deprived of speaking abilities because they have not been properly guided, that’s why they have not been able to speak English in a proper manner. In cities they are motivated through two ways: Instrumental and Integrative motivation. Learning a language only for rewards is instrumental motivation. On the other hand Integrative motivation includes the urge to be part of the community which is so strong that drives to pick up the language with perfection. The importance of English as a communicative tool is not realized. The illiterate parents are unable to realize the importance of education and also they do not understand the importance of communication skills which plays a vital role in their ward’s career.
