The University of Hyderabad, in association with the ELT@I Hyderabad Chapter, is organizing a 3-day national seminar on 'English Language Education in India: Theory and Practice' on 23-25 January 2012.

The demands made on language teachers are steadily increasing, so is the awareness among teachers for the need to improve their own knowledge base, teaching and professional skills. In this context, it is essential to understand the several dimensions of English language education thus gaining a holistic picture and simultaneously becoming aware of the wide range of issues that impact language education. The purpose of this seminar is to look at the political, theoretical and practical aspects of English in India, and the various dimensions of English language education today.
