| Abstract | The objective of this academic article was to provide a descriptive presentation about the need and importance of creating and nurturing English speaking environments for non-native English students which enabled them to learn the English language in ways that were most effective and efficient. These English language environments served as learning avenues wherein the students were able to intentionally use the English language as a medium of communication to develop their English language skills, particularly their communication skills, with self-confidence and without hesitation. It presented the problems that impede the learning acquisition of the English language for non-native students concerning their developmental growth in trying to become familiar and well-rounded in usage. Furthermore, it also explored educational ways as to how these English speaking environments could be catalyzed in ways that were creative and sustainable while stimulating the sense of need amongst the students to use the English language in their daily communication. This later became a part of a language culture that opened a wider spectrum of approaches in how to get a good sense of acquaintance with the English language as a medium of communication in day-to-day affairs. It was observable that these English-speaking environments, in many non-native English-speaking countries, did not naturally occur or present itself due to a lack of intentionality on the part of the educators to create and nurture these language environments. It was expected that by creating and nurturing English-speaking environments, the non-native English speaking students would be able to use the English language practically and naturally as a vital part of their daily life and their future professions. |
