Title of the paper : Reconnoitre English Language Teaching and Learning Issues of Professional Students and Teachers

Abstract: Researcher The ever-growing importance of English language in the job market and its direct linkage as one of the most sought-after employability skills, could not much influence the way it is treated in the management colleges as the major emphasis of the teachers and students remain on the technical papers instead of English. Also, the pedagogy or approach used for teaching English varies among management institutes. English has been an important language for the students to be employed, for their sustainability in the industry as well as for career growth. The researcher has experienced that the students struggle a lot to get the placement because of the lack of proficiency in English and find difficulty in answering questions of the interviewers. Also, after gaining an experience of teaching English language in many reputed management colleges of Andhrapradesh, the researcher learned that the students enrolled in the management college were keen to develop their English language proficiency but found it challenging to inculcate the LSRW skills. This motivated the researcher to understand the difficulties in acquiring LSRW skills. There has been a common tendency of mocking the students of Andhrapradesh for the uniqueness in conversation especially in English. Being born and brought up in Andhra Pradesh, this is another area which has reinforced the researcher to do something about it.
