The Opinion of the First-Degree Students of English as a Second Language

ENGLISH

The majority of students choose classroom teaching for learning a second language. Learning a second language is influenced by a wide range of elements, including attitude, self-confidence, motivation, length of exposure to the language, classroom settings, surroundings, family background, and availability of qualified instructors (Verghese, 2009). The teacher's competency, like the environment and attitude, is a changeable component that impacts the second language acquisition. The University of Jammu collected a sample of 250 students from five different departments of the social sciences, including education, economics, social work, psychology, and international relations. There were 115 men and 135 women among the sample's total number of participants. To verify the validity of the findings, the researchers asked each participant to fill out the survey on their own time, in the comfort of their own homes. This study's results will contribute to our knowledge of how people form ideas about language learners from a pedagogical perspective.
