Abstract: Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) involves equipping non-native speakers with the linguistic, cultural, and practical skills necessary to use English in academic, professional, or social contexts. This field has gained prominence due to globalization, increased international communication, and the role of English as a global lingua franca. Effective TEFL instruction integrates innovative methodologies such as communicative language teaching (CLT), task-based learning (TBL), and the use of technology to engage learners. These methods emphasize practical language use, interaction, and contextual understanding. Challenges include addressing learners' diverse proficiency levels, cultural differences, and motivation. Teachers must also consider local educational systems, societal attitudes towards English, and resource availability. This abstract explores TEFL approaches, teacher training, and strategies to enhance language acquisition while fostering cross-cultural understanding. Ultimately, TEFL contributes to global connectivity, providing learners with tools for personal and professional growth.
