One of the biggest industries in language learning in Korea is English instruction to learners of non-English mother tongues, commonly known as English as a Second Language (ESL) for non-English students learning a foreign language in an English-speaking country, such as Canada, or English as a Foreign Language (EFL) for students studying English from a country where English is not the official language. This thesis pays particular interest to one area of English instruction that is continuously in high demand: ESL/EFL instruction to Korean students. However, it goes one step further by investigating how effective learning English in an online, distance education (DE) environment can be. In particular, it focuses on guidelines and recommendations into ways to make online English learning effective so that learners can be immersed in the target language and culture even though they may not be in the physical presence of an English instructor.
