This paper is a modest attempt on the new, changing pedagogical methods and techniques which are individually involved in the learning process of English as a global language. It is to be in reference to the language planning in total while involving instructional plans, professional curriculum, syllabus designing and selection of appropriate materials. Methods are used to teach linguistic language whereas techniques in teaching are closely related to teaching of literature. The methods will be in scientific mould like Phonetics and Etymology. John Munby refers to English for Specified Purposes (ESP).The methods seek training the students in using language skills-LSRW. Modern Technology of scientific education facilitates the use of language laboratory to train the students in Listening and Speaking while the Career Laboratory takes care of the skills of Reading and Writing. Without reading habit no good will turn out in mere listening to the lectures of spoken English. This paper throws light on the four skills (LSRW) to be taught on scientific lines as in the case of Phonetics and Etymology. Techniques are introduced to teach literary English in its wider concerns for Prose, Poetry and Drama. Study of literature brings refinement of human spirit along with the power of enhancing the quality of life. To sum up the various methods of teaching literature are seemingly more similar than dissimilar. While allowing no interchangeability, Dubin and Olshtain point out how techniques are not to pass for methods while masquerading as lambs in sheep’s clothing. Therefore the methods in scientific orientation in explorative breakthrough and techniques of humanistic thinking in all creativity are the two distinct streams of English teaching in mutual complementariness as in individual preferences.
Keywords: linguistic language, Technology of scientific Education, professional curriculum, changing pedagogical methods, Phonetics and Etymology etc.
