Analysis of Question no 10:What are some obstacles that you find to implement 
the new and creative teaching techniques in Bangladesh? 
 
Some main obstacles that the teachers find to implement the new and creative 
teaching techniques in Bangladesh is that the parents of the students still believe in the 
traditional teaching techniques.Then they mention the pressure to complete the syllabus 
in a limited period of time. They also told that sometimes authority does not co-operate. 
Another important point is that the class hour is not enough to include some extra 


74 
activities.
Students‟ fear towards the foreign language and their tendency towards 
memorization has come up as another vital obstacle. Finally they also mention that 
sometimes the numbers of the students are a big factor to adapt some new techniques 
and get it implemented on them.

Discussion and Recommendations 
5.1 
Discussion on Findings 
Though there is a great importance of Group and pair works, a good number of 
the students assures that they seldom do these activities in classes. The main reasons 
were revealed as more practice of grammar or reading and the lesson only lasts 40 to 
50 minutes. Again there is hardly any time to devote to these interaction activities. Many 
of them assure that they work individually. In reality teachers have limited time and in 
many cases little ability to conduct activity based class. 
Lack of various speaking activities in English lessons like different kinds of drills, 
information gap activities, discussion activities, role-plays, games etc. was found. It is 
also found that it is necessary to encourage students to use English as a medium of 
communication during English lessons. The findings suggest that many of the teachers 
know that spoken classes should be based on different types of activities and in 
practical field, they try to apply these. But the application is not sufficient. Drilling can be 
practiced a lot for improving speaking. Students should be encouraged for autonomous 
learning like watching movies, dining at a restaurant which can also help learners to 
develop speaking skill. Video clip, audio visual material can significantly improve 
learners speaking. For the students, game related activities and story-telling activities 
may be practiced. To increase the confidence level of the students for developing 
speaking skill Special care is to be taken to improve students‟ pronunciation. 
Though practice of English skills were found useful, there are less scope for 
practicing those for different reasons. The writing practices of our classrooms are hardly 
improving the writing skills of our students. A major observation of the survey is that the 
teachers are still not able to adapt appropriate activities properly in teaching writing. 
Very few teachers use teaching techniques in the classrooms which can develop their 


76 
students‟ interests in writing tasks and improve their skills. Most of the teachers are not 
willing to let the students get involved actively, perform independently and individually in 
their classrooms, rather students are being instructed as a total group. Innovative 
teaching techniques are not being implemented in the classrooms by the teachers to 
that extent to develop stu
dents‟ ability as fully as possible and the result is, the students 
are not improving their wring skills properly and fully because they still lack their interest 
in English severely.On the other hand, many of the students said that they are not 
getting th
e chance to write in their own language. So, it‟s clear that teachers are not 
encouraging the students to improve their individual performance. 
Again teachers help came up as a vital point for production of correct productive 
skills. More help from the 
teachers‟ side to the students regarding productive skills are 
expected. Activities based on the students‟ own thoughts will help them to be creative in 
productive skills. The research suggests that many of the teachers are conscious about 
the importance of activities based on real life and which students may find interesting. 
But most of the teachers are not professionally trained to teach English language. They 
have little aptitude/technique to teach proper English. 
Though the teachers claim that they are following CLT as the method of 
teaching, but the goal of CLT is still neglected. CLT do not guide the students to learn 
the language rather it guide them to acquire the language by communicating in English 
with others. Language acquisition is better than language learning. But students still 
tend to learn and memorize their lessons. Parents also expect their children to do better 
result rather than becoming a good speaker or writer and force them to memorize. The 
authority should try to give the teachers the freedom to use new and innovative teaching 
techniques which may seek students‟ interests.
