Complying the curriculum requirements, the language laboratory has been established by Jansons Institute of Technology to enhance the language proficiency of the students and to facilitate the learners to gain mastery in the use of English. It enables the students to expedite the process of improving learning skills with more emphasis on LSRW (Learning, Speaking, Reading, and Writing) leading to desirable employability. The language lab intends to develop the confidence level of students and it would motivate them to use their language skills outside the classroom as well. The technology thus fulfills all the needs of language learners and educators. The Laboratory is effectively utilized by students and faculty members for various self-enhancement and soft skill development activities.

Laboratory proves beneficial for those students who are poor in the use of the English language. Students from rural areas who are generally weak in English can have sufficient ear training in the language lab. It aims at confidence-building among students for interactions and presentations in English. The basic purpose of the lab is to provide students a platform to enhance English language skills, communication skills and to practice soft skills. Language Lab is useful to enrich a student’s language learning experiences. Further, this revolutionary language lab is equipped with audio recording facilities which help a great mode of evaluation and feedback. By this self-evaluation of the students’ performance, they can identify the areas that need to be improved or changed.
