Abstract
The current research investigates the use of modern pedagogies in Pakistan. It is intended to address the teaching community's pedagogical problems in Pakistan. Besides, the research also motivates teachers to make use of modern pedagogies and make their teaching effective. Although most teachers use obsolete methods of teaching, this research attempts to investigate and encourage the use of modern pedagogies in Pakistan. Furthermore, modern pedagogies effectively address the learning needs of students. Therefore, this research seeks to investigate which teaching pedagogies are used in teaching English in Pakistan’s Sindh province. Purposive sampling technique and survey questionnaire were used for collecting data from six participants who teach English in government colleges of Pakistan’s Sindh province. The research findings show that the participants are using modern pedagogies when teaching English in their colleges. Additionally, the researchers applied a qualitative method to analyze the data and used a survey questionnaire to collect primary data with the help of purposive sampling. Hence, the current research studies the problem of using modern teaching methodologies in a detailed manner.

Summary
The use of modern pedagogies in Pakistan demands the immediate attention of applied linguists and education researchers. Blended learning and flipped classrooms are already becoming accepted pedagogical techniques around the world. The use of translanguaging as a pedagogical strategy is widely accepted in classrooms (see Ali, 2021). These pedagogical innovations are being developed in compliance with the dispersion of skills and variety of learning needs that students bring to the class. The use of modern pedagogies is hardly finding any ground in the context of Pakistan. Most of the teachers still prefer to use the traditional methods of teaching and thereby making their teaching ineffective. The Pakistani teachers will have to realize the importance of modern pedagogies
