ABSTRACT
Because English is so widely spoken, it has often been referred to as a "world language", the lingua franca of the modern era, and while it is not an official language in most countries, it is currently the language most often taught as a foreign language. English is widely spoken in the Philippines. It is used as the business language as well as the medium of instruction in schools and universities. It is the language used by the people all over the world in order to communicate to anyone. From this research work, it is very important to determine the importance of English to BEED students and to encourage them and be informed about the advantage of being English proficient. Local and foreign, are now being spent on teaching English to improve elementary school kids. It would be better to strongly promote English proficiency for BEED college students as future educators, especially reading and writing skills, so they can build a strong new nation from within, on their own terms. Rich Filipinos automatically provide their children with this type of English instruction. It should be available to all who want it. The method used in this research is descriptive normative survey method and the respondents are from second year, Bachelor of Elementary Education Generalist students. The instruments used are news clippings, pamphlets, books, magazines and questionnaires. The finding show that that the majority of the BEED students believed that English proficiency is really important especially for the opportunities for employment locally or globally. It was also concluded that studying, practicing, learning new vocabularies and reading English literatures are the major factors for students to have ability in English proficiency. It is also recommended that one must be determined to learn the English language and one must use to speak verbally the English language.
