Abstract:
The English language has acquired such great importance in the world that we cannot go on teaching it to our students at the Ecole Secondaire des Techniques Administratives in Burundi on the basis of the actual and inadequate English program. This project examines how inadequate the actual English course is, and makes proposals for an adapted curriculum using most recent methods of teaching and of curriculum development. The proposed change puts a special accent on the language and on the technical vocabulary as a means of communication on the job.
