    (BRAC University, 2023-06) Mimi; Sultana, Syeda Farzana
    This study aims to explore the English language teaching and learning practices at two schools for underprivileged children in Dhaka, Bangladesh. This study was conducted in two NGO schools in Dhaka following a qualitative approach. The data was gathered through semi- structured interviews of teachers. The study tries to answer the research questions about how English language is taught in underprivileged children's schools, the challenges they face and also looks into the benefits of learning English for underprivileged children. The result shows that, limited application of technology, limited listening equipment, fear, lack of creativity, lack of motivation, overly depending on teacher, memorization, economic barriers are some of the problems and challenges the underprivileged children faces in terms of learning English as a foreign language. Therefore, the students are benefiting by studying at these schools because it works for the children who are extremely poor and needy with a minimum tuition fee. These schools provide all necessary equipment related to the study of underprivileged children.
