Learning a foreign language for another language speakers always can be a quite difficult process. But how to teach or learn it depends on the learners themselves. This work aims to clarify the challenges in learning English as a second language, some suggestions and solutions to it from the teachers and learners’ point of views. Teaching English to another language owners also means teaching new culture to them and at the same time understanding learners’ all points related with language.
