<p>This case study investigates the current status and challenges of mother tongue-based education in Manipur<strong>’</strong>s hill districts, home to numerous tribal communities with distinct languages. Based on a survey of 251 respondents including parents, teachers, community leaders, and students the study explores language use in education, availability of teaching materials, language proficiency, and community preferences. The findings reveal a strong disconnect between children<strong>’</strong>s home languages and the medium of instruction in schools, which is usually English or Manipuri. Most schools lack textbooks or resources in local languages, and few teachers are trained or fluent in them. Nevertheless, there is widespread community support for using the mother tongue in early education, as it enhances comprehension, participation, and cultural identity. Major challenges include lack of insufficient teacher training, education materials, standard orthography, and community anxiety about English proficiency. The study highlights the importance of aligning educational practices with linguistic realities to promote equity, effective learning, and language preservation.</p>

<p>A large number of examinations in the history of teaching of English language have encouraged a tendency to a good relationship between psychology and English language teaching. Both English language teaching and psychology are important for teaching English in order to increase the knowledge of language teachers and learners. It is fact that psychology may be used as devices to reinforce learning English and to motivate the English students. To understand what is meant by psychology factors we need to briefly consider psychological theories of language learning. This paper will consider educational psychology and approaches to psychology in the acquisition of second language. To illustrate the issue of this paper I will look at interlanguage theory in second language.</p>
