摘要：It is clear today that people all over the globe find proficiency in foreign languages vital in the development of their communities in such a competitive global growing economy, where skilled workforce is an asset in the social and economic growth. The massive bulk of data demands faster and reliable means of access to this knowledge. The realization of this fact has urged governments and individual persons as well, to cater for foreign language education to bridge the physical gap between producers and consumers of knowledge. Foreign language teachers are the frontiers, who are directly concerned to secure and accomplish this mission, so they need to be literate and skillful in their field, by the assistance of language supervisors. Teaching is no longer that simple mechanical job of handing over information from teacher - as active agent to pupil as passive agent. Teaching now is a highly complex job, applying very sophisticated techniques and implement advanced machines to facilitate professional classroom presentation. This paper examines the role of language supervisors-in developing nations-in enhancing the foreign language education as providers of both: core subject knowledge and teaching skills to their supervisees.
