Abstract

The traditional method of teaching English was teacher centric whereas the revised English curriculum in the ccE pattern being followed in the schools of Telangana is learner centric and completely interaction based which enables the students to think and caters to the development of all the four skills of English language. Previously the teachers used to frame a few motivating questions and elicit the topic but in the new method pictures followed by a few questions are given in face sheet and teachers must interact on the basis of it. Then discourses like report writing, debate, play, interview, choreography facilitate the students to become independent learners and users of language.. There is a drastic change in the students who put in efforts to use the language appropriately. This not only helps them in classroom but also in real life.
