When a School Becomes a Pool -
What Can We Do to Make Language Learning Interesting to
Yemeni Students

Abdulghani M. A. Al-Shuaibi, Ph.D.

Situation in Yemeni Schools - Focus of This Study

The title of the present essay is picked out carefully to denote the whole concept of this essay. I attempt to review the educational situation of our pupils in Yemen in three stages. The salient aim is to present some suggestions for the improvement of the educational process in Yemeni schools. As a Yemeni teacher in the field, my objectives are constructed based on my own experience of teaching as well as the experience of some of my colleagues. I will describe some points to be followed and applied for the betterment of the educational situation.

The Teacher

It is important to commence by going back to the source which is deemed to be the teacher. The teacher is considered almost the main axis for the students to learn effectively. He/she is the one who makes students interested in learning or in neglecting a certain subject taught to them. Whenever I had conversations with some of my students I realized that there is truth in the above observation. Continuous interaction with them proved this point again and again.
