I am interested in Teaching English as a Foreign Language otherwise known as TEFL. I have studied a TESOL course (Teaching English as a Second Language).

The difference in the two abbreviations reveals some of the sensitivity around teaching English. One stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language, and the other for Teaching English as a Second Language. A lot of learners are in English speaking countries and they are learning English as a second language.

comment Is “human resources” men?
@Huizhe I think you are being very generous. I did not think expressions like 'thingie noun' were permitted. Also this question could have been answered by simply looking up 'Human Resources'. What people have actually done is to use the question as a platform to air their political opinions. But you are right, this is an example of a question being answered in a helpful way. By the way, what is an 'OP' - OK (Original Poster).
