Even in crises like the COVID-19 pandemic, the education system revived its status with the help of digital technologies, innovative pedagogical interventions, modern digital methods and approaches of teaching and learning LSRW skills worked for effective English Language acquisition. This paper recognises the role and importance of teacher quality to address the enhancement of LSRW skills.
