Abstract
Teaching English as a foreign language has quite a cultural impact in most of the countries where it is being taught. To understand the concept of cultural impact, one first needs to become aware of the cultural conceptualisations that are the basis for the connection between native language and culture. The spread of English as the main foreign language in the world cannot be controlled so teachers and learners need to learn how to live with English language as the part of their cultural identity without affecting their native language and culture in a destructive way. Many countries where English is taught as the second language, see the knowledge of English as a skeleton key on the way of their success in every aspect. Teachers mostly in Asia do not have the right competence to teach their students English in the right way so parents of the children end up spending most of their money to private lessons of English in order to enable their children to be proficient in English which is considered the only way to success. Many teachers in Australia are not familiar with the cultural conceptualisations of the Aboriginal children they teach so conflicts during English lessons are common, and that needs to be improved by developing cultural awareness. Cultural awareness includes avoiding stereotypes, prejudices and solving intercultural conflicts in order to improve communication.
