English Language Learners (ELLs) in Urdu Main Stream: Resources for State-Run Secondary Schools in Punjab Province
This research analyzed the materials used to teach English in Punjab province's public secondary schools (Pakistan). The objectives of the study were; 1) to find out the availability of resources in English teaching and 2) to explore the utilization of availing resources in the teaching of English. A descriptive research methodology was used for this study. The study's population consisted of all secondary school teachers responsible for instructing their students in English. A total of 400 secondary school instructors were chosen randomly for the study. The study relied on a questionnaire with 21 questions. In pilot testing, the questionnaire had an overall reliability of 0.83. Based on the findings, few modern resources are useful for English teachers in the classroom. Whiteboards, blackboards, charts, and other visual aids are commonly used in classrooms to teach English. English language teachers in Pakistan's Punjab province need more English language teaching (ELT) materials in their classrooms.
