People whose native language is not English, but who wish to learn English as a second language, must learn English as a new language, as a skill, as an additional means of communication. They have to learn how to pronounce strange words, and which syllables to emphasise, and what rhythms and tonal pitches should be used.
But people whose mother tongue is English do not have to go to school to learn these things, they learn it automatically, from their parents, their relatives, their friends and from everyday life.
For example, they do not have to 'learn' the grammar structure, or the various forms for past, present and future tenses; they just acquire that ability subconsciously and instinctively, from sheer exposure to the language; they do not consciously 'know' the rules of grammar, and they probably could not even explain them. By the age of three, or maybe even earlier, they just automatically know what words to use in many situation and what form those words should take.
However, later, as part of their formal educational training, they will have 'English' lessons at school, along with other subjects such as Geography and History and Mathematics etc.
They may be given writing practice, and the opportunities to read literature that will expand their communication and learning skills. They will be encouraged to read and write stories and poetry, and will be given opportunities to become more and more familiar with their native tongue and how it is used in different ways to communicate information and ideas.
They do not need to learn to 'understand' the English language. They can already do that, but by doing 'English' as a school subject, they will expand their vocabulary, discover alternative, and maybe better, ways to express themselves. In doing so, any little 'mistakes' in their English will be corrected along the way.)
SUMMARY
English as a Secondary Language is a course for learning English for people who do not speak it as their primary language. It is a course for learning to speak the English language, given in a location where most people speak English, but some (mostly immigrants) have a need to learn it the way others in the US, for example, learn Spanish, Russian or Chinese.
English as a subject is the study of how words are written in sentences. English class is the study of the different parts of a sentence and using words to express an idea or opinion.

I have expectation English communication in world level language
Yes. A clause contains a subject and a predicate. e.g. English language (subject) is an interesting language (predicate).
ESL: English as a Second Language ELL: English Language Learners They are related, but ESL is the subject, ELL the learners. You could say that ELLs study ESL.
The English language is not a second or foreign language. But it is the first language to learn, or, in some cases around the world, it is the second language to learn after the native language, for exmaple, of China or France. It is a foreign language to the rest of the world because they have never heard someone speak it, so it's kinda like for us when someone speaks Swahili.
