This study was intended to answer a number of question of questions that guided thr research. To get answers to those questions, classroom observation as well as both pupils' and teachers' questionnaires were used. This was done with the intention of finding solutions to the problems encountered in the learning of English language in Burundi secondary schools, particularly in the First Form Arts. The study was carried out in 5 schools in Gitega city. Informants were selected using the simple random sampling technique to avoid that none of them felt excluded.
