Review journal entitled Factors affecting quality of English language teaching and learning in secondary schools in Nigeria by Dr. S.E. Aduwa-Ogiegbaen & Dr. E.OS. Iyamu

Teachers must have various technique and methods in teaching English. Some basic skills that can be apply to the students for their writing skills are speling, punctuation, linguistic skills, and convention of style. Many teachers teach in a traditional way. They use textbooks, dictionaries, chalkboard, workbooks, and posters in English language teaching. Modern media such as audio and video tapes, language laboratories, programmed texts, flash cards, computers, magazines, and newspaper are rarely used.

English language teaching faced many problems such as inadequate period of teaching, teaching methods, and the limitation of useful resources. Nowadays, teacher’s role is as facilitator of learning when technology is integrated into the school curriculum. As the use of technology in the classroom, the learning process can be more student-centered and individualized. Teachers also should be accustomed with the various teaching methods, not only teach in a traditional way.

Public school should be provided with adequate and various instructional media. Teachers should be familiar with the use of new technology-supported instructional tools and various instructional delivery methods.

The most important thing that improve the learning process is the learning environment. It should be the first priority by the state and federal government, so the students can learn well.

According to Chomsky in the transformational generatif grammar theory, language is something that produce without any relationship with its own language elements. He stated that language is a part of human component and a product of human intellegence. So, the students with many distractions in their environment still have a competence to learn other languages.

If I use modern media such as audio and video tapes, language laboratories, programmed texts, flash cards, computers, magazines, and newspaper, also use various teching methods, and create a good environment at school, the students will enjoy the class and the learning process will be better. But the important thing is every students have their own capability in learning other languages, so the result of the learning process may vary.
