Abstract
This study takes a look at some of the challenges of language teaching in our educational institutions. It highlights the place of language in the National Policy on Education and discusses the different categories of language taught in our schools. The study concludes that no education can take place effectively without the use of language; therefore, the language factor in educational system cannot be overemphasized. Despite the exciting possibilities the Internet offers for language teaching and the popularity of learner-focused approach, the teacher still remains an important figure in language teaching. Education is best given in the language of the people and to neglect the peoples language is to neglect the very essence of their existence.
