Advantages and disadvantages of english education in india

Answer 1

What are the advantages and disadvantages of English medium schools in India?

An English-medium education system is one that uses English as the primary medium of instruction—particularly where English is not the mother tongue of the students. English language had been introduced in India by Britishers. Now, knowing English has becomevital for the following reasons:

1.

It is the language of computers.

2.

It is the language of business across globe.

3.

It is the language of Science and it is the language the world speaks. Lack of fluency in English can be a huge hindrance in the future.

In English medium schools, early introduction of this language help to build comfort with language.

Sometimes parents do over emphasize English language. Its not a good idea. The bottom line is that we need to teach our kids in English because it is vital for their future and for that we must start early. All this is great, but we still need to consider that children learn at their own pace. Also English is not the only thing that they have to learn at school. So we need to strike the right balance in introducing the kids to a new language.
