Q:01)why did you select this specific sub-theme and topic ? Relate it to your experience /problem in your classroom /institution  

ANS:

The issue of poor academic performance is to off such extend that teachers are held responsive for the fallen standard of education .some people criticizes teacher for not having effective communication at their disposal which reflect in the performance of their duties .

Communication is used to describe the process of changing of information between people of means of speaking, writing and active listening or using the common system of behavior .communication is considered to be most important aspect of effective teaching which creates the rapport among the student- effective communication involves the most accurate sending and receiving of information, full comprehension of the message by both parties.  appropriate Action is taken upon the completion the information exchange. An classroom setting, teacher thought’s and content of 1st prepared as a written message, and presented to the students throw verbal means. This description of teacher Job summaries the Act Art, Process of communication

Furthermore, Student’s character building and academic background totally depends upon the professional attitude of teachers. If teachers adopt positive professional attitude towards the students in their academic and as well as their social achievements, then students can easily promote their academic level. Teacher has the responsibility to teach and practically prepare students for the purpose that they can cope with all type of situations. It also comes under the responsibilities of teacher to behave as role model to the students

We found that when teachers create a sense of community, respond to students and

Foster positive relationships, students are more engaged and enthusiastic about learning

And tend to perform better academically.

 

The main reason of selecting the topic of soft skill was to measure the significance of these skills in student’s performance and overall school development.
These soft skills are very important for a teacher to make or break career of student. They also give a teacher sound footing to work with students, parents, administration and other teachers and it ultimately improve teacher’s effectiveness. From these soft skills the communication skill plays a vital role.

So the reason of my research is  to find the causes at school level/(Elementary level)  .how a teacher  that having a good communication effects  on student learning process  and I will  find the results , how much improvements and changes comes  by good verbal English language communication in class like on his/her  domain Academic performance ,social life   and family status
