"English for non-native speakers" would likely be a class or classes for people whose first language is a language other than English. The class or classes would be tailored specifically for the needs of people who speak other languages first.

How come people who is not natve speaker can have their accent?

Non-native English speakers get their accent in large part from their native language. For instance, French-speakers have difficulty with the "th" sound in English and instead pronounce a zed. The "h" is usually silent in French also, and French-speakers can't aspirate it, so the English "this is the help I need" would be pronounced "Zis is the 'elp I need". In addition, non-native speakers pick up the accent of the English they have learned, so that Italian immigrants in Australia have both Australian and Italian accents. Sometimes, the English accent can affect the non-native speaker's language so that when an Italian-Australian returns home to Italy for a visit, their Italian has an Australian accent.


What language has the greatest number of non-native speakers in the world?

My guess is English, but the question is tricky. Non-native speakers does NOT mean every single speaker of English born outside of the UK, North America and Australia. There are many different Englishes, including the English spoken as a first or dual language by natives of India, the Philippines and other places. English is on the move, and there is no stopping her.
