The linguistic perspective on Second Language Teaching focuses on how language is learned and how second languages differ from first languages in terms of acquisition. This perspective emphasizes the importance of grammar, phonetics, semantics, and pragmatics in language learning and teaching. It also considers factors such as comprehensible input, language transfer, and interlanguage development in second language acquisition.
The basic principles of teaching English in a psychological linguistic pedagogical framework involve understanding language acquisition processes, considering learners' psychological needs and motivations, and utilizing pedagogical strategies that cater to individual learning styles. This approach emphasizes creating a supportive and interactive learning environment, promoting language use in real-life contexts, and integrating linguistic theories into teaching practices.
A native language is the language that a person grows up speaking from birth, typically within their family or community. A second language is a language that is learned in addition to one's native language, often through formal education or immersion in a different linguistic environment.
Learning English as a second language means acquiring proficiency in English after already having learned a first language. People who learn English as a second language often have a solid foundation in another language and are now adding English to their linguistic repertoire.
Sequential bilingualism refers to the process of learning a second language after the first language has already been established. This typically occurs when a person learns a second language at a later stage in life, such as through formal education or immersion in a new linguistic environment. Sequential bilingualism can impact language development and proficiency in both languages.
TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. It refers to a field of study and a profession that focuses on teaching English as a second or foreign language. With a TESOL certification, individuals are equipped to teach English to non-native speakers in various settings, such as language schools, universities, or private tutoring.

Understanding how we most naturally learn language (how we learned our first language) helps understand the nature of language learning. The more you can mimic this process in teaching a second language, the better.It also helps the teacher understand ways learning a second language is unlike learning one's first.
