And if we think about language in present world then English is one of the most used languages in the world and English is used as a second language in Bangladesh. English is introduced here at the primary level and its inclusion continues till the tertiary level of education. Most of the students of the primary schools in rural areas are weak in English language due to lack of skilled and trained teachers who are familiar to the modern methods and approaches of teaching and lack of materials for teaching in the classroom. Primary level English curriculum implementation is essential in Bangladesh to achieve theset English language competency in the rural areas. Students in the rural areas are performing poorly in English compared to their urban counterparts. Statistics showed that there was a gulf of difference between the facilities enjoyed by rural schools and urban schools. The study explores the challenges of teaching English language in rural areas in context of Bangladesh. This study investigated the factors affecting student’s performance in English language in rural areas. Data were collected using interviews, classroom observation and questionnaire. Result of the study reveals that students were highly motivated to learn English for future expectations such as local and international communication, academic advancement and employment prospects. It also provide a scenario of English teaching system in rural areas of Bangladesh as well as the problems and prospects of English language in perspective of Bangladesh.  \nKeywords: English language, rural areas, education, learning and teaching, competency  \n1. Introduction  \nLanguage is one of the most useful tools we have as humans. Without it we could not think of thoughts expressible to others, nor could we engage in the activities that commonly take place in the society we build ourselves (Di Pietro, 1994) . Language is very important in education. The high status of English within a global economy of languages has meant that English language education is increasingly being promoted in international development initiatives. A broad goal of English language programs is that of developing the communicative ability to convey and interpret a message via written or spoken modalities to another person. In our country, there is no doubt that we still have not established a standard of education in schools and colleges. There are too many problems in our country that have to be eradicated to embrace a comprehensive education system through which we can expect ourselves to be a richer nation. We must not forget that students today will become the key members of our country who would be responsible for the overall development of our country. If we do not have good teacher, there is no way we could expect to have a balanced society in future. And if there are not enough good teachers in English, then there would be imbalance that the urban area students will be good at English, but students in rural areas would always be deprived of getting or learning English properly. The main objectives of teaching English in Bangladesh are to enable students to understand simple commands, instructions and ","cbCailaKadQulnLL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailaKadQulnLL","pdf",806918,12,"English","# Introduction\n# Factors that making a difference in performance of English language in rural and urban area","[{\"question\":\"Why do rural primary school students in Bangladesh perform weakly in English?\",\"answer\":\"Rural primary schools have weak English performance due to a lack of skilled, trained teachers using modern methods and insufficient teaching materials in classrooms.\"},{\"question\":\"What factors influence students’ English performance in rural areas?\",\"answer\":\"The study investigates factors affecting performance, including challenges in the education system and differences in facilities and resources between rural and urban schools.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the study conducted and what did it find about student motivation?\",\"answer\":\"Data were collected through interviews, classroom observation, and questionnaires.
