Abstract
Now a day we find teaching techniques are always on the verge of showing something new. This study deals with the role that teaching literature can have in the training of English language. It is necessary to establish a general background of education for all sorts of learners. Among the foreign languages, English is the most important. In the spheres of education, English has occupied a special place. The teachers use a variety of teaching methods like translation, rote-learning of grammar rules, diagramming, parsing, précis writing and composition. Some favour the memorization of the literary gems of Anglo-Saxon culture. Others seem to forget that they were teaching EFL, and acted as if they were instructing native speakers in England, the U.S. or Canada etc.
