WHAT DOES TESL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Teaching English as a second language

Teaching English as a second language refers to teaching English to students whose first language is not English, usually offered in a region where English is the dominant language and natural English language immersion situations are apt to be plentiful. In contrast, teaching English as a foreign language refers to teaching English to students whose first language is not English, usually in a region where English is not the dominant language and natural English language immersion situations are apt to be few. The teaching profession has historically used different names for these two teaching situations; however, the more generic term teaching English to speakers of other languages is increasingly used to describe the profession. Both native speakers and non-native speakers successfully train to be English language teachers. The use of these various terms has led to confusion about the training options for both prospective students and for employers. Because there is no global standard for the training of English language teacher, it is important to look beyond the actual acronym/title to the components of the training program.
