During the past several decades, India has achieved success in girls’ school enrolment and in enacting policies to address educational inequalities such as those based on gender. However, education gaps still exist. Language is one of the basic requirements for education. Several research studies across the world proved that gender differences exist in learning a language.

For this purpose, the researcher elicited responses through a structured questionnaire from the sample population. The data so obtained as analyzed and discussed in this paper.
