SPECIALLY FOR ENGLISH TEACHERS
As we all know, the study of English has been losing its importance in schools as the Syllabus has got more and more burdened with plebian and uninteresting baggage, even as the learning of English is asked for in villages and small towns and metros across the country. This dichotomy is hard to understand, especially because India is almost the only country where many languages flourish with equal vigour and creativity. The linguistic map of India is indeed rich and full of diversity!
Indian literatures in translation is a new exciting field that's opening up for teachers in English and Bhasha schools across the country. Come join us and make it happen!
