Code-switching in Secondary Level Classroom Teaching: A Survey of Selected English Medium Schools

Abstract

Code-switching refers to the way of communication that bridges two or more linguistic varietiesto resister in a single conversation. Especially, in secondary level class-room teachings in English medium schools, code-switching, for this particular research, has been analyzed and interpreted to conclude that among innumerable reasons- deliberately or unknowingly-the environment of the classroom mainly feels the echo of code-switching to facilitate understanding for the students. Code-switching, however, is the need of the teachers if they teach comparing two languages in the classrooms.
