In the last few centuries, English has become a lingua franca which makes it one of the most important languages and is learnt in all over the world. Today’s globalization era also tents to force people to be able to understand English well since it is used in all sectors such as academic, business, politics, career, etc. In that case, many people consider that an early start in learning English become a priority. An early start is strongly connected with age, it can be said that early start has the same meaning as the age of the child. According to some scientist, age is an important factor that plays an important role in learning process of a language. Many people believe that the sooner we learn a language is the better. As the result, children start to learn English at younger and younger ages nowadays. Primary students, who are commonly referred to as young learners, are now in the centre of education and are given much more attention. Teaching English to young children is a rewarding but challenging task. It requires patience, organization, and full dedication to providing a fun and stimulating learning environment for your little students. This type of teaching can be especially effective if you are able to connect with and devote your undivided to each child. While teaching can sometimes be demanding, the rewards that come from seeing children grow and learn are undeniable, and sometime exhilarating. Teachers may therefore find themselves teaching English either without adequate training in teaching young learners in general or in teaching English to young learners in particular. The situation is especially acute in poor or rural areas. 8 19 International scientific journal ISSN: 2181-3906 «MODERN SCIENCE АND RESEARCH» 2023 VOLUME 2 / ISSUE 11 / UIF:8.2 / MODERNSCIENCE.UZ Linked to policies about pedagogy is the issue of resources. In some countries such as South Korea (Butler, 2004) and Malaysia (Pandian, 2003) textbooks are prescribed. In other countries, teachers can choose from government-approved books, for example, in Singapore (Mee, 2003) and in China (G. Hu, 2005). Given the global prevalence of early English learning, it is a matter of concern that in many countries, appropriate books are either not available (Hoque, 2009; Y. Hu, 2007; Mathew & Pani, 2009) or are not used in the classroom. In many parts of the world, large classes are a common challenge, causing teachers to believe it is difficult or impossible to introduce learner-centered teaching because, for example, they cannot closely monitor students’ language use (Li, 1998) or use pair work and group work. A related issue is the problem of control and discipline Carless (2004) argues that the noise produced during speaking activities can be problematic when the local preference is for quiet and orderly classrooms. Another problem in teaching younger schoolchildren a foreign language is motivation and understanding what a foreign language is needed for in later life. Students' lack of motivation may be caused by a lack of support from their parents. The following problem follows from it — this is inattention and restlessness in the classroom. Memory Songbatumis spoke in detail about her experience when she once caught a student who did not bring any books to school due to forgetfulness. In contrast, other students intentionally left their books on the classroom table. Memory Songbatumis believes that such things would not have happened if the parents of students controlled the education of their children at home. The students will be highly motivated once they know what they are expected to be able to do after learning certain materials as well as the things they could relate to the material are. According to L. A.Tsyban, primary school students are inatt
