Abstract

The study was entitled as "A comparative study on English language learners' attitude towards English learning". The sole objectives of the study was; to make a comparison between public and private English language learners' attitude towards English learning. The current study was a quantitative research. The population of the study comprised all the public and private secondary school students at Sialkot and Vehari district. The questionnaire of the study comprised 13-items. Questionnaire was administered to the sample. Data collected through questionnaire from the 300 hundred public and private secondary school students. The collected data was analyzed through most frequently used statistical techniques of mean score and standard deviation. The study found that all the respondents agree that studying English helps. Public group replies are more constant, whereas private group responses fluctuate. This shows that the private group has diverse language learning backgrounds. A single curriculum may standardize public language acquisition. Personal preferences or learning styles may explain private group attitudes. The constancy of public group replies may indicate systematic language acquisition. The contrasts show each group's dynamics and views.
