INTRODUCTION
The Present report gives focus on impact of English as second language. ESOL are those
who want to learn English for surviving in competitive world. English is very important
language as it has been accepted by all nations for avoiding linguistic barrier and being able or in
position to take advantages of worldwide opportunities of employment, education and business
expansions. The report had tried to connect the intersectionality factors and ESOL feeling and
shows how these elements impact ESOL. The report explains the meaning of intersectionality
and how it determines and segregate the opportunities for people. There are several
disadvantages for ESOl and inferior people who have low wealth condition which demotivate
them and feel incapable of learning English. The report supply details Interlocking system of
oppression which state that how it gives different experience to women from men to live in
society, how white dominate the black etc.
MAIN BODY
Impact of English as a second language based on gender, class and race:
ESOL are those who wants to learn English to improve their standard of living and their
income earning capacity as English have become common language that are accepted by each
nation. In UK there are various educational policy that support every section of society to learn
and aspire their dreams with feasibility and legal norms (Crenshaw, 2017). There are different
factors in society of each nation that are hurdles in path of education system. These hurdles are
discrimination on the basis of culture, language, background, ethnicity, culture, class, racism,
ability and race which not only hurt the ESOL mental state by giving them stress but also it
harms their confidence to fight against for inequalities opportunities provided to them.
What is Intersectionality
Intersectionality is a way of identifying person, group and people based on various
factors like age, gender, caste, education, culture, language etc. all these factors leads to affect
those who are ESOL and it effects them adversely as it discriminant and serve as disadvantages
to respective society. Intersectionality is not all about legal discrimination but also lead to
discrimination in class of student as educator can give more importance to those who are from
their region, or who are of same gender. Usually ESOL student feel lack of interaction with those
teachers who do not pay attention to the student while teaching English as they are of low caste,

racism, different first language and ethnicity (Moradi and Grzanka, 2017). ESOL are those who
wants learn English with lack of favouritism, once they feel out of group they feel uncomfortable
in learning from those instructors.
In education system there is a lot of disadvantages that have been provided based on race
factor. This racial inequality produce unequal opportunities to get success in education. Such
type of Drawback of education system lead to stress among students who are suffering from this
drawback even if they are good qualified and brilliant. ESOL get the feeling of unbefittingness
when they are treated according to gender there are many places in United Kingdom where more
preference is given to male rather than female so such situation creates unhealthy environment
and results in deficiency of motivation.
In world where education is regularly aroused to lawful inequality it is still seen that there
is still practices based on culture, ethnicity, languages, gender and ability which is Poignant
ESOL community to not to get equal opportunity for learning English as second language
because those who think they are superior from ESOL community want to bully them and want
them to remain same as before (Oexle and Corrigan, 2018). Thee intersectionality affect thinking
capability of affected person, they start disrespecting and lose feeling of belongingness with
distinguishing party as it is a human nature that they do not like other person if they do not
support or harm feelings. ESOL wants support and guidance from the fluent speaker of English
so that they get to know more vocabulary and improve their grammar.
Intersectionality and Wealth
In United Kingdom there is huge difference in income earned by male and female this
also become reason for discrimination. ESOL are those who wants to learn English as second
language and Wealth play important role in education as those who have good wealth condition
are treated good and given priority in each activity of students class room and in other areas as
well, The report focuses on the wealth difference in male and female on the basis of
opportunities available to them due to racism, gender, age, culture etc. There are several work
places and universities where ESOL feel distinguish due to their earning levels. Mostly rich ones
dominate the poor ESOL for not being standard as they are it disheartens them and made them to
feel unsecure and disinterested in studying in those areas. Those who came from the poor area
initially leave hope of studying in extremely society places as they have fear of ragging and
favouritism based on their looks, communication style (Harrisand and Patton, 2019). Even if

there are several government rules and policies that are made to encourage ESOL who are
judged. And given scholarship in reputed universities, but they feel to neglect those opportunities
due to self fulfil prophecy.
ESOL who are children of Less educated parents suffer higher social and economic
problems than Those are child rich people. Due to low income level they have been sent to the
public school where they have never attended extra curriculum activities which automatically
made them feel inferior from the high society schools where they have been trained by highly
experienced tutors. In modern era wealth has become parameter to measure individual's ability
(Emerick, 2019). Narrowing the proficiency of inequality in education system become very
important for personal growth and economic development as literacy level plays an important
role in economic growth of nation so government should take more steps to improve the
education system so more and more individuals can be motivated to learn English and contribute
to personal development and economic development.
Interlocking systems of oppression
The interlocking system of the oppression is refers with the how differences creates
among people like sexual orientation, class, race and age group of people served as oppressive
measures with towards the woman and change the experience of living as a woman in the
society. This creates more issues for people because there is having some discrimination with
people in the society. In this, peoples are give some pressures on the woman and children and the
education system is more strong in this field of work in effective manner (Young, 2020). This is
come with the clear studies for better management. This is analyse through the sexual desires,
orientation and oppression in negative manner. ESOL people have their basic language to convey
their messages with others. They are follow their mother language first and they have not any
idea of English language. This creates more issues for the children because present days English
is the most important and effective language to clear their education in proper and in effective
manner. In the ESOL have problem which is they are provide great chance to woman against of
man persons.
This is not good and correct because through that man's are get failure in getting job at
the workplace as well as getting proper education system to peoples. This give the negative
impact on the man because they are target people as per gender not as their qualification. Gender
discrimination is not the correct way to get success at the market place and in the education

sector. This is the view that identities are not the singular, but multiple which is social
movements must be attended did not the always seems as obvious as it perhaps. This has
determine the historical origins which are often elided in its very taken for the grandness. There
is include various items activities which are vary as the explicitly the references social identify.
This is create the some versions which are simple statements of the group membership.
Regardless the version of the activities are used in the businesses (Carastathis, 2016). This
creates more issues and problems for the students and people because they are not able to done
their work in proper manner. In this people are create more pressure on the people and man to
learn the English language first in effective manner.
CONCLUSION
From the above study it had been concluded that the ESOL has the second language of
others because their first language is other. This has created more issues for the people and
children for managing thinks in proper manner. There has the people give chance to woman not
to man. This has the proper gender discrimination which had been created by another people in
respective manner. This create hard and complete pressures of man and other people who have
not complete idea of language and not able to understand about the language. The report had
been covered with the oppression of interlocking system as well as the intersectionality and
wealth system of children and peoples in effective manner.
