As a result, the Albanian learners of English language will be able to identify some of the major differences and similarities between the grammatical categories of verbs in English and Albanian; overcome the usual mistakes; gain the necessary knowledge regarding verbs and use them properly in English and Albanian.

India is a land of various hundred languages; commonly spoken languages are Hindi, English, Punjabi, Gujarati and many more. English officially has a position of assistant language, but the fact is that it is one of the most prominent languages in India. Being one of the imperative languages, the use of English has become a necessity in India. It has been given the main importance as children have been taught English right from kinder garden to middle school and higher education. English represents in Indians minds better culture, better education and superior intellect. The use of English language in India was limited before the incursion of the British. Gradually, people started taking interest in learning and teaching English as a second language because of its use in financial, legal, business, corporate and education in India. Further, the future of learning and teaching English is essential for the reason that it is a world language and universally spoken and written. I believe that English will maintain the lingua franca of the world for next 25-30 years as the numbers of learners are increasing. Thus, the present paper will focus on the journey of teaching and learning English as second language in India emphasizing on its past, present and future.
