ESL: English as a Second Language*
EFL: English as a Foreign Language
According to some professionals, there are clear differences, depending on the student's place of residence, and whether or not they intend to live in an English-speaking country, or just want to be able to speak English in their own, non-English-speaking, country.
Academics often make much of such differences. However, the Cambridge University English Language Teaching qualifications, for example, make no particular distinction between the two. A qualified and competent English-Language teacher is able to adapt the course to the English language needs of any student, according to their individual needs and abilities.
