Abstract
Balochistan is the largest province of the country, but along with other fields of study, this province needs drastic measures to bring about improvement in the field of English language and literature. English is an essential means of instruction in the educational institutions and universities of Balochistan. Unfortunately, students in Balochistan fail to acquire better results owing to ineffective teaching methods. English teachers in Balochistan make recourse to a number of teaching aids to make learning of English an interesting task. It has been learnt through practical examples that monotonous teaching style leads to boredom and lack of response. Rigid and stiff manners shake the confidence of shy and timid students from poor background. This research paper aims to pinpoint the significance of humour as a helpful teaching aid for teachers in the province of Balochistan. A teacher succeeds in student motivation only when he knows how to bring smiles on the faces of the pupil. Undoubtedly, English language and Literature at times become so difficult to grasp that without bundles of laughter, it is impossible to achieve teaching goals. This paper is meant to figure out how the tool of humour in its true sense: with a didactic purpose and free from farce, assures a conducive class environment and how English learning becomes an easy task with smiles on the faces of the students
