WHAT IS LANGUAGE LAB?

Similarly, a language lab is a place where we can learn languages.
The way we have tools, equipment, chemicals and specimens in our science labs, in English language Lab, we have number of tools which teach and guide us to learn and practice languages.
Language lab is the software which enhances the skills of a student, teaches English and enhances ability to Listen, Speak, Read and Write.

Whereas in India, English is a second language. It is a foreign language. We need to learn the language and since it is also not commonly used outside class rooms, the opportunity to listen, speak and practice are very limited.
To improve skill in any language one must listen and speak in an order and follow the system of that language.

WHY A ENGLISH LANGUAGE LAB?

Language labs are becoming highly valued in schools, colleges and universities because they offer students a structured e-learning environment that is successful and reliable.

Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing (LSRW) are the four skills which play an important role in the acquisition of language and learning.
