1. Background and Rationale

As a global language, English is an important tool for people in every corner of the world to communicate.

For educational aspect, English is considered a way to seek interdisciplinary knowledge. Thailand is one of countries in South East Asia that has a very strong educational system at all levels from primary education, secondary education to higher education, especially in the university.Teaching English in universities in Thailand is aimed at developing students’potentiality to cope with the challenging situations when the country enters into Asean Economic Community. English is also regarded as an official language in Asean Community.

It has prepared for the readiness in teaching English language for the students. Mahamakut Buddhist University, Isan Campus, has both Buddhist monks and ordinary students studying Buddhist Dhamma and general subjects from Bachelor Degree to Doctor Degree.
