Abstract

Teaching a second language at the preschool level in recent years has had a high demand in the educational area due to globalization that prioritizes the knowledge of a second language. In turn, higher education institutions have tried to provide future teachers with the necessary tools to carry out the teaching of a second language successfully. In addition, it is important that preschoolers be able to acquire a second language by receiving the proper orientation in the ESL learning process. That is why, it is essential to prepare future educators with the most relevant key contents. Although the University of El Salvador is not far behind, researchers decided to assess the methodological axis based on some bachelors’ testimony from the English Teaching Major at the University of El Salvador; confirming that the contents in the methodological axis have remained outdated regarding the teaching of a second language at the preschool level. Indeed, this research is intended to find out what are the key didactic contents that must be included in the methodological axis in the English teaching major from University of El Salvador to enhance skills when teaching at Initial educational level. Researchers highlight the use of three main methods for ESL Teaching regarding preschoolers.
