PREAMBLE
Teaching a language requires not simply the presence of the textbook, the teacher and the learner, but the strategies to appeal to the minds of the learners. It requires the emphasis on cognitive, affective and metacognitive processes that lead to effective learning outcomes. The two day international conference on “Emerging Approaches and Methods in English Language Teaching (EAMELT)” will provide a platform for national and international participants to exchange their expertise on the effective English language teaching techniques that may vary based on the culture of the nation,
curriculum and learners’ needs in addition to the expectations of the industry. It will widen the understanding of the challenges faced by ELT practitioners and suggest remedial and innovative methods of teaching and learning English.
