English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is a specialized branch of English language teaching that focuses on teaching English to students with specific goals or needs, such as English for business, English for academic purposes, English for medical professionals, etc. Unlike general English courses, ESP is tailored to meet the specific linguistic requirements of the students in their particular field or profession. While a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate is primarily designed to prepare teachers to teach English as a second or foreign language to non-native speakers in a general context, it can also be beneficial for teaching ESP. A TEFL certification equips teachers with essential skills and knowledge in lesson planning, classroom management, language assessment, and...  [Read more]

CALL first became prevalent in US classrooms in the late 1070’s. Since its introduction it has gone from a primitive, structured Q&A program, to full-fledged language programs such as Rosetta stone. Although programs like Rosetta Stone have experienced success, many experts believe that CALL should be used to augment rather than replace face-to-face learning environments. This was one of the big questions facing ESL teachers in the late 90s, how to integrate CALL and its resulting technological concerns successfully into the classroom. Such things as whether an...  [Read more]

Should Students Be Allowed to Use Their Native Language in the Classroom When I first began teaching lessons during the TESOL Course I found myself almost automatically saying to the students, “English please,” after all it is an English class. However, I began to question myself about whether or not this was “correct” practice or if the students should in fact use their native language to assist them in the learning process.

It suggested things along the lines of, “The foreign language teacher shall direct her whole professional effort to assist the students to develop his/her second language speaking ability.” It also mentions that TESOL teachers are to...  [Read more]
