Hola!
How long have people been teaching English outside of England (UK) or an English speaking country?
Were there French traders in the 14th Century who learned Elizebethan English from ex-pats, who spent their free time smoking flowers, drunk and visiting the lady of the evening?
Did the new settlers to the New World teach the native peoples English?
Were there native speaker English teachers living in Nazi Germany, or Fascist Italy? Any English teachers in Japan before WW 2? There has to have been some.
I have heard that it was the last 30 years that this field has become popular with expats, first in Europe and now in Asia.
