Learning words, grammar, and fluency through stories-An empirical study
Abstract
Learning language is an enigma to some learners still in twenty first century. A competent and confident method is still in search of many researchers in the stimulation of language learning. Trained across the disciplined methodologies through grammar and other structures of learning students’ difficulty in comprehension remain as the unsolved mystery of acquiring the beauty of language. Remembering vocabulary, sentence patterns and fluent speaking skills are considered as the important competencies in language learning. In the analysis story telling found an inevitable traditional aspect of language attainment. This study again strives to prove the unconquerable ability of narration even in the present century in the aspect of stress-free language learning. The method of storytelling is the effective component in the perspective of learning especially speaking skills. Prolonged usage of this tool in human communication supplies a contextualized language input for natural acquisition of vocabulary and grammar structures. Deviating from the techniques of memorization, these narratives engage the cognitive and emotional aspects of the learners in an enjoyable and meaningful environment. The study purview includes vocabulary retention and fluency acquisition as the focus in the language learners. Using a quantitative approach, this study investigates the impact of story-telling on vocabulary retention, grammar comprehension, and speaking fluency among learners exposed to storytelling. The results would pave way for the inclusion of story-telling as an inseparable component in the curriculum of language studies.
