This Book is intended mainly for teachers of English in the Junior High School although teachers in the higher classes will also find it useful. It covers nearly all aspects of English teaching in our schools and aims at giving concrete guidance instead of dealing in detail with the theoretical aspects of teaching English as a foreign language. It does not claim to be and should not be regarded as a comprehensive treatise on methods of teaching English. It is essentially a book of suggestions illustrating how some of the difficult items in the syllabus for the first three years are to be taught, how oral work, reading, writing, and composi tion are to be handled and how tests and examination question papers are to be constructed. We feel confident that if teachers follow the suggestions offered in this book intelligently, they will be able to develop an effective technique and a rewarding method of teaching English.

In the writing of some of the earlier chapters of this book we received valuable help from Mr J. M. Ure, British Council Educa tion Officer for Northern India, and Sri D. D. Joshi, tutor at this Institute, and we are grateful to them. We are also grateful to Dr J. A. Noonan of the University of London for some very useful suggestions and his interest and encouragement at all times.
