Abstract

This study examines the methodologies, strategies, and challenges associated with teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) in secondary schools across Delhi. Its objective is to analyze the instructional techniques employed by ESL teachers, evaluate their effectiveness in achieving language learning goals, and uncover the challenges encountered by educators. Using a qualitative research approach, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions involving 45 ESL teachers at the secondary level. A thematic analysis identified key aspects such as instructional methods, classroom strategies, and management techniques. The findings highlight a reliance on traditional methods like lecture-based instruction and the grammar-translation approach, alongside a growing adoption of interactive and communicative teaching practices. Despite this progress, educators face considerable challenges, including managing diverse student needs and limited resources. The study recommends improving ESL teaching by integrating technology and adopting competency-based frameworks. Its implications contribute to shaping future pedagogical advancements in ESL education.
