Are British and Americans only native speakers of English Language?
Being a student of English language and a teacher of English language always trouble me with some questions. Does the certificate of
PHD,/MPhil/ BA/ BEd in English from the universities of Nepal have value? If yes, why they should take the exam of TOEFL/ IELTS/GMAT /GRE or other to go for further study? Can a four-hour exam judge his/her language performance? Why our universities or professors don't raise voice for this matter. If an exam is taken it's okay. What about the exam fee? Is it fair? Why it is so expensive. A student who does not have to spend the total amount to pay from class 1 to master level, has to be compelled to pay for a single four-hour exam. We may think westerners or Europeans are helping Nepalese. But in totality in the name of varieties of tests in English language, they are deserting Nepal and Nepalese.
Millions of US dollars or Pound has been spent in the name of only language tests. No one should be against the language test but we should raise the voice for the cost of English language test? There must be fair in test too. If not why a Westerner is paid more and less to Nepalese in work .
Even for teaching English language, why preferences or only native speaker? Do second language learners not possess the quality? There must be discussion over this matter. Nowadays English language does not belong to only one or two nations. It has been the language of the world. It has to be respected and respect should be given to all but not to only few nationalities.
