Assignment on Search of a New Paradigm for Teaching English as an International Language. TESOL Journal, 5 (4).

This study is an important one for the English language, especially considering it as an international language. The author has observed that the English language has been going through various radical changes in recent times, and the good thing about these changes is that there are some newly discovered ways founded in terms of teaching English to speakers of a multilingual background. The English language has been well-defined by the scholars, and they have explained it very well so that people from all backgrounds can understand its perspective. The scholars are coming up with a strong argument that now the English language should not be considered with the pre-constructed varieties, instead, it should be taken in a practice form so that more people can learn the English language.

               This study tried to take two perspectives to be analyzed with a purpose to create viable conclusions. First of all, it considered pedagogical implications of how procedural knowledge might growth so that students can handle the variety of English language which is present when they will make any global contacts. The article also has stated that awareness of language is quite different from its rules and grammar etc. The second perspective taken in this study was the pedagogical practice. After looking at both views and defining their relevant aspects with detail, a conclusion mentioned in the end that there are various things for teachers to take as serious concerns. In addition to this, the author has also assumed that teachers could use the different methods so that they can cultivate the procedural knowledge with the help of negotiation strategies, rhetorical sensitivities, and language awareness. 

               Teachers need to do so because English is growing as an international language, so they have to come up with a new paradigm, which is more suitable and flexible for the variety of people on a global scale. This study is very fruitful in analyzing the English language as an international language, and then understanding its different perspectives so that a new paradigm is found, which is considered to be used by everyone around the globe. The research study was not empirical in mature, so its findings viewed to become a bit limited, but the overall analysis was proper to get an idea about English as an international language. Future studies can take a lot of insights from this study to explore more relevant research areas related to the English language on the international level (CANAGARAJAH, 2014).
