<p style="text-align:justify;"><span class="text-small">Entrepreneurship is&nbsp;not a new idea but it has never been more important than it is today in this&nbsp;time of financial, societal, educational crisis and massive challenges both at local and global scale. On the one hand, innovation and entrepreneurship are possible&nbsp;potential instruments to provide solutions for both local and the global&nbsp;challenges of the 21st century and onward by building sustainable development,&nbsp;creating jobs, generating renewed economic growth and advancing human welfare.&nbsp;On the other hand, education has the potential to develop the skills to&nbsp;generate the entrepreneurial mind-set needed to prepare future leaders in all&nbsp;sectors, entrepreneurs, to solve more complex, interlinked and rapidly changing&nbsp;social and economic problems of the world. Therefore, education systems across&nbsp;the world are facing profound challenges. Although there has been a significant&nbsp;increase in the number of courses and programmes featuring entrepreneurship in&nbsp;some form, I feel that more could still be done to integrate it fully into the&nbsp;educational curriculum, including the curriculum of language classes. The last&nbsp;few decades have seen the importance of the English language continuing to&nbsp;increase around the world, especially as the lingua franca for economic and&nbsp;scientific exchange. English has become dominant in a way that no language has ever been before, and the common belief is that it may never be dethroned as&nbsp;the ‘king of languages’. The use of English as the world’s preferred medium for&nbsp;international communication can be credited to globalisation, just as&nbsp;globalisation can be credited to the spread of the English language. The two&nbsp;have gone hand in hand. As a result, both studying and teaching English&nbsp;language consist of more than just learning a foreign language or teaching a&nbsp;subject matter. Therefore, having a good command of the English language became&nbsp;a key element in the continuity of many sectors and the success of businesses&nbsp;all over the world. Consequently, having an entrepreneurial mind-set together&nbsp;with a good command of the English language is a good prognosticator for a&nbsp;successful career.&nbsp; And it is obvious&nbsp;that these two qualities can both be taught in schools. Therefore, I strongly believe that English language classes are the best places to kill two birds&nbsp;with one stone and make this educational vision come true. This Paper aims to&nbsp;highlight the importance of designing and implementing EFL courses in such a&nbsp;way that learners can both learn the English language and develop an entrepreneurial mind-set since no other discipline and, as a result, no other&nbsp;subject area teacher has such a power.</span></p>
