Abstract:
Whatever the subject, whatever the area of specialization, we need to acquire proficiency in English to function. When we examine the goals of English language teaching in Ghana, it is clear that English is taught to enable us to use the language to communicate effectively. We need English to pursue studies in other subjects. For further studies for employment, for social recreational and administrative purposes. Since English is not our native language, its use as a medium of communication in our schools and society, depends upon it being taught effectively as a subject in our schools.
