Bonard has just released a report on Trends in English Language Teaching and it is certainly worth a read.

Here is a brief summary of the key trends shaping our industry:

Improving Domestic English Language Education

The quality of in-country English language education is improving across most source countries, impacting the ELT industry. As English language learners become more proficient at a younger age, traditional English language teaching providers must adapt to remain appealing to students from abroad. This can be achieved by investing in a unique, highly specialized education offer, connecting students with networking opportunities, professional development, and career prospects. This will help students achieve personal and professional growth and meet their individual goals.

Rise of Transnational Education

The English language education industry must capitalize on transnational opportunities to improve its provision, with traditional language schools and associations playing a crucial role in capacity building and teacher training. Government and sector organizations can support these partnerships.

Strong demand for studying English in Asia

Intra-regional English student mobility in Asia, particularly in Singapore, the Philippines, and Malaysia, is growing. These destinations are crucial for students seeking English improvement, and their growth is expected to continue in the future, allowing for a more accurate understanding of the global ELT industry.
