Investigating washback effect of the 10-11 grades english tests

Abstract

Language greatly facilitates communication between people. When two individuals speak the same language, they can communicate easily. However, because many different languages are spoken worldwide, talking with people from other countries can be challenging. To overcome this, schools often prioritize teaching languages, with English being a common focus due to its international use. Teaching English to young children who are also learning their native language is particularly challenging. These children must learn two alphabets and sets of speech patterns simultaneously, which can be difficult. Therefore, teachers need to use creative and effective teaching methods designed for young learners. Understanding these challenges, the education system emphasizes specialized strategies for teaching English. This ensures that children can gradually become proficient in English while also developing their native language skills. By focusing on language instruction and using thoughtful teaching techniques, educators help students gain the language skills needed for effective communication in a globalized world.
