A new approach to English teaching by RH method

Let us learn English                                                                                                                                   

Md Rashedul Hasan Raj

Lecturer in English

Khoksha college

A new approach to English teaching by RH Method at Khoksha.                                                                           Funny things are serious here at khoksha. Students are at a loss what to do, how to make a good result and with whom to read. They are looking for the touchstone, rushing to and fro, making plans after plans; they have become just like crazy dogs; they are doing all these without reading; waste of time is just like drinking a glass of water to them. Actually to say, investing time in studies is like catching a falling star because modern technology is giving them a real comfort; they find immense comfort through using facebook. It is as clear as a day that English is an enemy to them; most of them want to overcome this subject. From my experience, this much can be written that, when I speak English in class, not all but many students throw their wry look at me; I know the why and wherefore of it because their parents are looking forword to result only and the so-called English teachers have given a prescription of some stupid rules. They are at no circumstances enthusiastic to listen to  or speak English. In the age of creative merit ,memorization is valueless .Some students cannot get rid of this harmful net. Not all but some so-called famous teachers of Khoksha are tempting some students to read with them .After reading for two years ,they have not been able to learn even tenses of English which results in no chance in any public university ,destroying potential bright future and at last, nobody to console them. RH Method is poles apart meaning totally different .Creativity is the choice. If some rules really helped students learn English, students could communicate in English; they might not fear this language ;they might get A+;  I can tell the names of even hundreds of students who cannot translate even a short English sentence into Bangla .Moreover, a lot many students are basically of poor quality and below the standard to sort out what to learn, how to learn ,from whom to  learn and in short, they can be named as aliens in the world of English. To make everybody know ,they are switching off the light of their lives by making the  misleading choices of their educational notion. To brush aside the weakness as to this very special  language ,I along with some energetic teachers have been determined to teach learners through speaking English. By keeping pace with the suddenly technologically changed world, we have antipathy to false and people-showy and self-contradictory knowledge. Happy to think that many students are gaining the desired confidence and competence about speaking English. I have indomitable spirit ,unquenchable thirst and the long- cherished desire to teach the students how to speak English .In fact, I become immensely happy when I hear my students speaking English. Known to all that a great number of students continue to come of poor parents. So, if they can learn it in true sense, it will meet up their economic necessity. Universally true that speaking is the best and the easiest way of learning English. At the same time, I do not want any teacher to consider me as their enemy because they are ignorant of what the communicative approach is. To help them know, communicative competence means the ability to use language appropriately and practically in different circumstances. In this communicative world, those who cannot speak English, are called internationally dumb people. So, nobody should be internationally dumb. My whole-hearted effort to help the students learn English through speaking English has come true and will spread out widely within a short span of time.       

Without having skill in this language, students cannot even think of getting chance in any university. Hundreds of students fail in English because of not having basic knowledge in English. It has been clear to every body that these students cram some grammatical rules and some parts of writing and when they get anything uncommon in the question paper, they cannot write  properly and fail in the exam. On the basis of the well -wish of the Almighty and my untiring endeavour, RH Method will open the new door of English learning and teaching .

The aim of this method is to prepare the students for the competitive world .Happy news is that many students can speak English who were really weak in English. On the basis of this success, RH Method has proved that speaking English is possible. RH Method is determined to make the weak students competent in English. Friendly atmosphere is a must because I teach language not the disgusting rules of English which are directly rejected by the teachers and the students who are practically good at  English. The cause of the failure of hundreds of students in English in the examination is an open secret .To sum up, I ,as a conscious teacher, can suggest the students of khoksha not to be cheated.

An application for an English Debating Club

Write an application to the Principal of your college requesting him/her for permission to set up an “English Debating Club” at your college.

12 November 2012

The Principal

X College

Kushtia

Subject: Prayer for setting up an English Debating Club in our college.

Sir,

We, the students of your college, beg to state that ours is one of the best and most famous colleges in the district but we are very weak in English and we cannot speak English. Only because, there is no English Debating Club in our college. As English is an international language, we would not like to be internationally dumb. Moreover, this club will make the brain of the students sharper. Undoubtedly, an English Debating Club will brush away the problems of the students who are weak in English. Apart from this, this club will standardize our college more.

We, therefore, pray and hope that you would be kind enough to set up an English Debating Club and oblige thereby.

Yours faithfully

The students of your college

HSC level some important dialogues

RH Method

Students are asked to write dialogues with a view to justifying their basic knowledge of speaking with others and assessing the students with the sentences written by them. So, the real experience of speaking English must help the students write better than bookish knowledge only. In fact, the memorizing of some dialogues will be of no avail if the questions are a bit different. Examiners can never expect that students will cram some dialogues and will vomit those dialogues in the exams. And, I always suggest that students should change the habit of memorizing.

1.Write a dialogue between the two friends about the causes of failure in English and solution to this problem.

Rakib:    Hello Sumon, how are you?

Sumon: I am fine, and you?

Rakib:   I am also fine but I am thinking about a matter.

Sumon: What is the matter?

Rakib:    The matter is about the weakness of the students in English.

Sumon: Why are you thinking about this matter?

Rakib:    You know that thousands of students fail in this subject every year.

Sumon: You have said right .I think that these students have never thought this subject to be their friend.

The unpleasant truth is that they consider this subject as their enemy. What do you think?

Rakib:    Right you are? I think that they even do not know  that this language can be learnt and spoken.

They only know how to memorize.

Sumon: Exactly  so. When they see any uncommon question in the exam, they become senseless,

perplexed and finally blame their lot.

Rakib:    By suggesting them to memorize, a lot many teachers and lecturers are misleading and misguiding them. Do you know any solution to this?

Sumon: I think that they should read their text after learning English. If you ask me any question in

Chinese language, I will not understand because I do not know this language.

Rakib:  I think that they should speak English, read English newspaper and listen to English news.

Sumon:  I think that if speaking English is compulsory, they will be able to learn this language. Otherwise,

they will be failing in this subject ironically.

Rakib:    Thanks for sharing your valuable thinking.

Sumon: Thank you too.

Rakib:    See you again.

2.Write a dialogue between two friends on frequent road accidents in our country.

Alom:     Hello Shahin, what’s up?

Shahin:   I am in tension.

Alom:     About what?

Shahin:   I am thinking about road accidents. You know that many people die by road accidents

everyday .Getting into a bus means taking the risk of life.

Alom:     Right you are. Sometimes, it seems to me that life is at risk in Bangladesh. Road accidents have

become regular occurrences. What do you think?

Shahin:   Some accidents are very tragic and hair-raising. Few days ago, eleven members of a family died by a road accident.

Alom: Some people say that Bangladesh is called a country of road accidents. Unexpected death is very

common in Bangladesh. It can paralyze a family. Who do you think are responsible for road

accidents?

Shahin: Population is huge in number, vehicles are great in number, unskilled drivers are mushrooming and

roads are unplanned. Moreover, most of the drivers have over-taking tendency.

Alom:I think that drivers should abide by the traffic rules and they should not drive hurriedly. As roads are

very narrow, both passengers and drivers need be cautious. In fact, careful driving is a crying need.

Shahin: To reduce this problem, strict laws should be introduced. Roads should be widened and

consciousness has to be created among people.

Alom:     Exactly so. I think consciousness can play an important role about this matter.

Shahin: Thank you so much for your good thinking.

Alom :    Thank you too.

Shahin:   See you again.

3.Suppose you want to buy some books. Now, write a dialogue between you and the book-seller.

Myself:         I would like to buy an English grammar book.

Bookseller:  Would you mind telling me the name?

Myself:        PC Das Applied Grammar Book.

Bookseller: Here is it. A very useful book. A lot of people like this book.

Myself:      I had this book but I lost it. So, I need buy it again.

Bookseller: Will I pack it up?

Myself:       What’s the price?

Bookseller: One hundred taka only.

Myself:      But I bought it with ninety taka only for the first time. Can you reduce the price?

Bookseller: Ok, give ten taka less.

Myself:      Here is the money. Pack it up now.

Bookseller: Do you need anything else?

Myself:      No, thanks.

Bookseller: Sir, please come here next time.

4.Write a dialogue between two friends about the consequence of environment pollution.

Masud:     Hello Asad, what’s up?

Asad:        I am so so. Recently, a matter is shocking me very much.

Masud:    What’s the matter?

Asad:      I am thinking about environment which is being seriously polluted.

Masud:   Right you are.

Asad:     You know that air and water are the two important elements for us but they are being polluted

seriously.

Masud: You see that mills and factories, human waste and water vehicles are polluting water.

Asad:   Exactly so. Sound pollution and odour pollution have become very common. Even people mind

nothing to do these.

Masud: Unpleasant truth is that we must face a terrible situation if we cannot stop it.

Asad:  Over population, increasing number of industries and vehicles are mainly responsible for it.

Masud: Besides, unconsciousness, negligence and selfishness are not less responsible.

Asad:   How can we get the solution?

Masud: We all should know that a sound mind lives in a sound body. If a sound body lives in polluted

place, the mind must be polluted also.

Asad:    I think that strict laws should be introduced and awareness should be created among people.

Masud:Thank for sharing your opinion.

Asad:   Thank you too.

Masud:See you again.

5.   Write a dialogue between two friends about their plan of studies after HSC examination is over.

Forhad:    I have decided that I will go to Dhaka and will be admitted into a coaching center.

Abir:     But, I will go to Rajshahi because my maternal uncle lives there. So, I will get admitted

into a coaching center there. Actually, I would like to get admitted into Rajshahi

University because my  cousin reads there.

Forhad: My father wants that I should read in Dhaka University. Actually, I would like to be a  

lawyer and  so, I want to study law there. What is your target?

Abir:     I want to do honours in English in RU and I would like to be a lecturer in English. Why

would you like to be a lawyer?

Forhad: It’s a good profession and I would like to make the proper use of law. Why would you

like to be a   lecturer in English?

Abir:     You know that most of the students of Bangladesh are weak in English? And so, I would

like to  remove their weakness in English.

Abir:     May God fulfill your desire.

Forhad:  May you reach your goal.

Abir:      See you later.

6.    Write a dialogue between two friends  about the adverse effects of load-shedding.

Shohag:    Load-shedding is the problem. Our exam is knocking at the door and I am yet to read a lot.

Shoail:     Right you are. Really, it is very disgusting. I lose my concentration when load-shedding occurs.

Shohag:  God knows what will happen to me if this goes on in this way.

Shoail:    Actually, all classes of people are suffering from it. All kinds of activities remain stagnant

because of load-shedding.

Shohag: Hospitals, banks, courts, schools and colleges become inactive because of load-shedding.

              Moreover, it becomes intolerable in hot weather.

Shoail:   Exactly so. At night, it can make a place ghostly.

Shohag: To speak the truth, it has become a perennial problem.

Shoail:   Problems are everywhere. What is the solution?

Shohag: I think that more power plants should be set up and system loss should be reduced.

Shoail:   Not only that, illegal connections should be banned. I think that consciousness can play a vital role

               in this regard

Shohag:  The wastage of electricity should be stopped and strict laws should be introduced.

Shoail:   You know that electricity is the driving force of a country. So, it should be ensured at any cost.

Shohag: You know that lack of electricity means lack of production.

Shoail:   Hampering the study of the students is very harmful for a country, I think.

Shohag: Thanks for sharing your valuable ideas.

Shoail:   Thank you too.

Shohag:  See you again.

7.  Write a dialogue between yourself and you friend about “Eve-teasing”.

Forhad:  Yes, she can but some boys tease her on the way.

Topu:     It is a great problem and it is increasing day by day.

Forhad:  You know that our girls and women are teased in schools, colleges, buses, trains, restaurants etc.

               Why is it occurring?

Topu:     I think that modern technology is influencing their mentality. Because of satellite channels, the

               taste of the young people is being distorted.

Forhad:  Drug addiction is also responsible for it and sometimes, eve-teasers throw acid and even kill the

              victims.

Topu:    Not only that, love depression, frustration and moral decay are also responsible for it.

Forhad:  Right you are. I think that they have lack of consciousness.

Topu:     Even educated women are being teased by educated men. Certainly, it is nothing but moral

degradation.

Forhad:   As it is a social disease, we should remove it from our society.

Topu:     Consciousness can play a vital role in this regard. People have to cultivate morality in themselves.

              Boys have to be well-natured.

Forhad:  Strict laws should be introduced and proper steps should be taken.

Topu:     Actually, exemplary punishment can reduce eve-teasing.

Forhad: Thanks for sharing your valuable ideas.

Topu:    Thank you too.

Forhad:  See you again.
