Abstract
English is taught as a second language in India but it is widely used in the length and breadth of the country. The English curriculum is highly text based which focuses on the writing skills. This results in the poor speaking skills of the students in English. Good communication skill in English is the need of the day. The students need to be given enough exposure in the natural atmosphere to practice English communication skills. With the advent of technology this has become very easy. The language laboratories provide various interactive activities in the audio-visual mode that attracts the attention of the students and keep them engaged in learning the language in a natural atmosphere. The educational institutes should provide this facility to the students to help them enhance their language skills. This paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the language labs and compares the facilities of various language lab softwares.
