World Education System Model




The reasons EFL has embark on English as First Language curriculum is mainly due to the disparity in standards between the ESOL or EFL and language learned from top countries in the world. The easy material and level from the early years cognitively hampers a child’s acquisition of English as First language. Studies have shown that students who learn first language material from the age of 5 to 12 would eventually be proficient in English as a first language speaker. Currently based on the OECD 2009 reports some of top countries in education where English is taught as first language are Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Singapore. EFL curriculum design and padegogy is based on Australia and Singapore, therefore its more robust and accelerates English Language Learning from the early stages of the learning process.
