TEACHING
Teaching done well is complex intellectual work,
and this is so in the primary grades as well as
Advanced Placement physics. Teaching begins
with knowledge: of subject matter, of
instructional materials and technologies, of
cognitive and social development. But its not just
that teachers know things. Teaching is using
knowledge to foster the growth of others.

Between ESL and EFL
ESL countries are nations where the medium of
instruction in education and government is in
English, although English may not be the native
language.
EFL countries do not use English as a medium of
instruction but English is taught in schools.
Malaysia was once considered an ESL country but
now leans more towards EFL.

Between ESL and EFL
The distinction between second language
and foreign language is not, however, a sharp
one, and there are cases, like Indonesia,
where classification is disputable. Moreover,
there is a considerable amount of variation in
the roles played by second languages, for
example in education.

Indonesia, a former Dutch colony, used to
emphasize the teaching of Dutch.... The
movement towards English as a Foreing Language
began at independence, and English is now the
main foreign language being learned in
Indonesia. English is taught for eight or nine years
from primary school (from grade 4 or 5) through
high school (Renandya, 2000). The mian objective
is to provide reading skills to enable Indonesians
to read science-related materials in English.
