There are many public sectors universities and English academies established all over Pakistan offering English language proficiency courses. Therefore, this wave led to conduct this research. The purpose of conducting this study was to investigate contemporary pedagogical techniques used for teaching and learning English and to introduce the concept of ESL /EFL Best Practices for effective language teaching in Pakistan. Purposive Sampling method was used to collect the information from respondents regarding their contemporary-used teaching techniques in ESL/EFL class. The questionnaire was implied as the main tool for data collection among twenty English language teachers from two public sector universities. The results of the study indicated that teachers were attached with some outdated techniques and activities secondly, they also faced problems applying new techniques while teaching in a large multilevel classrooms, thirdly, teachers ’had willingness to adopt and employ innovative techniques in classrooms and lastly, the notion of ESL best practices was uncommon among them. Most of the teaching strategies do not create better learning environment, and learners do not interestingly participate due outdated activities.

According to Perry (2003) “Best Practices are the practical teaching, techniques, tips, strategies, methods, and exercises that result in excellent product for program delivery”.(p.01) . As indentified by Nawab (2012) that traditional approaches to teaching English language to learners of diverse backgrounds have not been effective in Pakistan. This is because teachers are employing outdated activities and to cope this situation of utilizing traditional techniques. This study is attempted to provide the solution to their pedagogic problems seem to be that new techniques and strategies must be put in place. Friedmen (2005) refers that in order to survive in the 21st century contemporary teachers will need problem-solving capabilities, creativeness, a enthusiasm for teaching, a dedicated work ethic and lifelong teaching opportunities. Best Practices are selected to focus on those features of classroom teaching competence that is evident to one-self and to others as well (Drummond, 1995) .
