For this week, before we started to learn the teacher talked about ESL and EFL, then she suggested us about searching information from the internet. After that, the teacher let us to make a group of 5 people for discussion, and presentation to the class.
In my group, we talk about the differences between ESL and EFL. English as a Second Language (ESL) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) require two different strategies for teaching for a number of reasons. Most people don’t know the difference between the two and don’t consider the difference when they set out to teach English. It’s important to know what each one is so that the different needs of the students can be met.
EFL is where the teacher teaches English to students in a country where English isn’t the native language. For example, a Chinese student learning English in China would fall under this category. On the other hand, ESL is where English is taught to students in a country where English is the primary language. An example of this is where a Chinese student is learning English in Australia. The difference between ESL and EFL might seem little at first, but they do require very different teaching strategies to meet the aims and objectives of the students.

The easy thing for me in this week, It was information about the differences between ESL and EFL because it's not too hard to understand. Moreover, we already talked about some of information of ESL and EFL last week. But I worried about my teaching English language in the future because after I read the article I thought that activating students to learn English language was so difficult, so now I will try to learn hard and learn about teaching methodology and technique of teaching more and more.
