According to the latest UIS data, at least 3.8 million students in 2011 were enrolled in tertiary education abroad, up from 2 million in 2000 (UNESCO, 2014). The surge in internationally mobile students* reflects the rapid expansion of enrolment in higher education globally, which has grown by 83% in a decade (UNESCO, 2014)

EDU. OF 2025 classrooms for teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) will incorporate up-to-date technology online classrooms Teachers will act as point of reference for some class interaction and other times the teacher will lead global sharing in the sense of educational classes being taught equally across the world 2025 teachers will have mandatory training to hone new and old skills necessary to ensure positive outcome vocational schooling will be in service and training for teachers also
