They can learn English on their mobile phones!
Bangladesh is the first country in the world to use mobile phones for learning English. Over 50 million people in the country have got mobile phones. They usually use their phones to chat with friends or send text messages. Now, they can learn English with Janala, the English language programme. Janala means “window”.
