Review paper

English language and English language teaching (ELT) have been receiving considerable attention from the respective world governments due to their increasing importance for globalization. As a result, ELT research has taken huge strides over the past few decades, which has had its positive implications for improving teaching this very important international language in many parts of the world. However, this has not been the case with and ended up sharing significant common problems pertinent to ELT, which have serious negative implications for these countries’ national development, but which also constitute a platform for collaborative research. The establishment of a Research council (RC) in each of the forty five public universities is thus discussed as a possible solution to overcome this problem. The discussion outlines certain challenging and demanding responsibilities for the instructors to help advance ELT research amongst the respective public universities cooperatively and collaboratively specifically where they are teaching in reviewing research materials for the learners to advance the concept of the research.

Key words: Research, English Language Teaching, research paradigms.
