Author's Name: C.N.VidhyaLakshmi, Dr.R.SureshkumarAbstract—Communication is the primary mode of transferring information between two or more people. Communication skill is meant for imparting and exchanging information using certain language skills such as speaking, writing, or using some other medium. As English is the global language, the craze for the English language has resulted in the commercialization of teaching English in countries like India, where there is a need for a common ‘link language’ amidst a wide range of regional languages. Education has become a profit-oriented business, and the welfare of the students has not been concerned. In India, the traditional method of teaching English in the language classroom has not been changed for ages. Education is centered on examination, thus the importance and goal of teaching English as a second language remain untested. Only memorization and reproducing the content is given priority by the present educationalists, as their prime motive is to score good marks not to develop efficiency in the target language. Thus, the quality and purpose of teaching and learning English as a second language remains questionable. This research article analyses the methods and activities to cultivate communication skills among the learners. It also offers some innovative ideas and techniques to solve the problems faced by the students in attaining fluency in communication and vocabulary. It also drives the point that teachers have to be capable and sophisticated with personal and professional advancement to promote the learners’ interest in learning the target language effectively.
