Discussion on the use of method and postmethod in teaching English has become a debatable issue in Nepal. Many methods emerged as reaction to others claiming each of them as the best one but questions of their practicality and utility led to the development of postmethod pedagogy. This pedagogy empowers teachers' autonomy in the classroom and encourages them to design the best alternative way from the choices on the basis of their experience, knowledge and the context. However, the inclination to method is also on the rise. Supports claim that no practice will be method free. In this context, this study attempts to explore the teachers' perception on postmethod pedagogy in English as Foreign Language (EFL) classes of Nepal. In order to achieve the designated objective, the descriptive phenomenological research design was used and 12 teachers who are teaching English at different schools in Pokhara were purposively selected. The data revealed that teachers have a positive and hopeful experience towards postmethod pedagogy and want to open quality changes in English language teaching, developing context and culture sensitive pedagogy.

The paper aims to discuss the role of literature in teaching English as a foreign language. The interest in the topic is caused by the growing need to improve the content and approaches to teaching English as a foreign language at university departments that train teachers, linguists and philologists. The underlying argument is that the inclusion of literature in the language-teaching syllabus, the careful choice of the material and the appropriate means of its teaching may facilitate the assimilation of the language knowledge and enhance cultural knowledge. Further, the paper argues that the use of literature may be beneficial in terms of increasing the functional literacy of language learners. Translation and visualization are discussed as highly productive means of helping students fight the feeling of disorientation in text. To enhance the efficiency of the use of literature in class the authors offer a number of approaches to reading activities. The discussion and our observations can be helpful for all those specialists who face the dilemma of including literature in teaching English as a foreign language or are reconsidering their techniques of teaching literature by adapting it to the needs of learners

This article deals with the issue of the features of pronunciation in teaching English specifically on the pronunciation difficulties of Uzbek learners. An important aspect in learning a particular language is pronunciation. Based on the explanatory Dictionary of Contemporary English Longman, pronunciation is a particular person’s way of pronouncing a word or words. In English language, there are not one-to-one correspondence between the letters of the alphabet and the sounds they represent. It is the aptness in pronunciation that makes our language comprehensible to others. Therefore, apart from grammar and spelling, one has to concentrate on pronunciation as well. There are some problems for foreign learners like age and perception as well. Very often students mispronounce the words, distort the pronunciation because they are not involved into the conscious approach of practicing sounds, words and sentences, instead, they are simply made to parrot out sounds and words without realizing what they are doing. In fact, training English pronunciation is necessary from the very beginning of learning a foreign language. Otherwise, it will be quite difficult to correct and make up for the fixed errors. Everyone faced the problem of pronunciation in the initial stages of language learning. It is important from the beginning of training to master sound speech, to learn how to pronounce sounds like native speakers do. In addition, the article considers the problem of interference and notes the most typical mistakes made by Uzbek learners when pronouncing English vowels and consonants. The goal of this article is mainly aimed at teaching and mastering the simplest and easiest ways of correct pronunciation of the studied language.

<span class="fontstyle0">Learning functional grammar for ESP class is aimed to improve students<br />of non-English language department to understand how English works<br />effectively, appropriately, and accurately. Teaching ESP cannot be<br />separated by the use or the implementation of functional grammar as it is<br />clear that teaching English as a foreign language in ESP class is also<br />concerned with the language as an instrument of social interaction rather<br />than as a system which is viewed in isolation. Teaching functional<br />grammar for ESP students, in this matter, students of non-English<br />language department, can result such a hard working effort for teachers in<br />order to help them understand the-so-called functional grammar. As a<br />matter of fact, ESP can combine subject matter of the related field of<br />study and English language teaching. Therefore, learning functional<br />grammar has actually been conducted in ESP class since the students are<br />also involved with the use of their background knowledge of the field of<br />study.</span>

<p>Literature is not generally considered as a coherent branch of the curriculum in relation to language – development in either mother tongue or foreign language – teaching. As teachers of English in Multi cultural Indian class rooms we come across students with varying degree of competence in English language learning. Though, language learning is a natural process for natives but the Students of other languages put in colossal efforts to learn it. Despite   their sincere efforts they face challenges regarding Pronunciation, Spelling and Vocabulary. The Indian class rooms are a microcosm of the larger society, so teaching English language in a manner which equips the students to face the cut-throat competition has become a necessity and a challenge for English language Teachers. English today has become the key determinant for getting success in their career. The hackneyed and stereotypical methods of teaching are not acceptable now. Teachers have no longer remained arbitrary dispensers of knowledge but they are playing the role of a guide and facilitator for the students. Teachers of English are using innovative ideas to make English language teaching and learning interesting and simple. Teachers have started using the literary texts and their analysis to explore and ignite the imagination and creative skills of the students. One needs to think and rethink the contribution of literature to intelligent thinking as well as its role in the process of teaching – learning. My paper would, therefore, be an attempt at exploring the nature of the literary experience in the present day class rooms; and the broader role of literature in life.</p>
