Teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) plays a vital role in facilitating global communication in today’s interconnected world.

It explores teaching methods, cultural adjustments, and the influence of globalization on English language instruction. By incorporating personal stories and research findings, the paper offers insights into how teachers balance language acquisition with cultural sensitivity. The results highlight the significance of cultural awareness and flexibility in improving both teaching and learning outcomes.
