Introduction
In the era of modern language teaching, a new dimension has been added in the existing

methods and techniques. With the development of technology, new innovations are being

brought up in language teaching. Nowadays, language teachers are using different audio-visual

aids to facilitate the teaching process. Along with text books, language teachers are likely to use

related pictures, audio clips, videos, power point slides, posters and so on in language

classrooms. The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits that the language teachers as

well as the learners get in using audio-visual aids in teaching English language.

To make a class interactive and lead a discussion, the audio-visual aids play important

roles. In one of the language classes, the teacher used a puzzled picture which can be

explained from different angles. The students were asked to explain the picture one by one. It

was found that there was a huge debate among the students. There were agreements and

disagreements among themselves. Through the discussion the class topic was introduced

which was ‘argumentative speech’. Then the teacher discussed about the topic of the lesson.

The use of the picture helped the learners to come up with ideas for the discussion. The

teacher could directly introduce the topic but the use of the picture helped the teacher to elicit

ideas from the students and lead them to the discussion. As a result, the students got ideas of

the topic beforehand which also helped them speak thus developing their speaking skills.

In another English language class of undergraduate program, the teacher used a

motivational video in a speaking class. The video was about a man who does not have any legs
and hands. Still he can play football and golf, play drums and can also swim. After showing

the video, the teacher asked the students to share their reflection on it. One by one the students

shared their feelings to the class and the inspirations they got from the video. Thus the

class was full of discussions based on the video which provided the learners with the

opportunity to speak to develop their speaking skill.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
