Learning English as a Second Language

Learning to speak and teach English as a second language can be confusing to both the teacher and the student.  Some are unable to differentiate between vocabulary words used in American English and British English. Moreover, there are words that may sound the same but their meanings are anything but. But not everyone knows that.  Plus the grammar is an extensive and complicated set of rules that govern how we speak and write using the English language. Grammar has evolved over many centuries, and the rules change from time to time.

As the most internationally spoken language, English is very important no matter where you live. From a business perspective, English entails a lot more than just learning the right vocabulary for the workplace. Cultural issues such as which type of language is correct for which is occasion must also be taken into consideration. Understanding business attitudes can also help in success on the job in English. Speaking on the telephone about important business can also be challenging.
