English Teaching in the U.S.A.
The United States of America is mainly an English-speaking country.The majority of the population speak English as their native language.Business,education,social activities,etc.are conducted in English.Across the country,people pronounce many English words in several different ways,but for the most part,Americans speak one common language.This language is sometimes called American English.
However,not everyone in the U.S.A.is a native speaker of English.Most immigrants are speakers of other languages.There are hundreds of communities around the U.S.A.where English is not the most commonly used language.Chinese,Italian,German,Greek,Spanish,and French are all spoken in various communities in the U.S.Spanish is the second most commonly spoken language after English.It is widely spoken in New York and across the southern part of the country.For speakers of other languages,learning English is important,but teaching people to speak English as a second language was given little attention.Non-English speakers were expected to “pick up” the language by meeting with others in public.Recently,this has changed.
Today,most large public schools and community colleges have ESL(English as a Second Language) programs:American English teachers feel that English students should learn the language the way they will use it.Therefore,ESL programs offer different English lessons to different students.Some programs teach students to communicate in English in public.Other programs teach the kind of English people will need for their jobs.American ESL instructional methods do not lay emphasis on grammar or translation,but on the importance of communication.The goal is to get the English learners to learn by using the language.
