Enhancing English language studies in Cameroon: the mother tongue perspective
Abstract
The intensification of reflections on ways and means to improve English Language studies in Cameroon reveals that there is a dire need to redress the falling standards observed in spite of modernization and increase in efforts of both the teachers and learners. In this paper we argue that sustainable English Language studies in Cameroon can better be achieved through the development and use of Cameroonian languages and methods that are culturally appropriate to the lifestyles and experiences of Cameroonians. The impact will be greater if pupils at the elementary level of (Pre)-Nursery and Primary education are allowed to study in their mother-tongues and in ways that are familiar to them.
