This study highlights issues and challenges in learning English as a third language in Jordan. The English language ranks first in the world in terms of studying it as a second foreign language. The official language of Jordan is Arabic; hence it becomes difficult for Jordanians to acquire English as a language for communication. The study is based on primary data by administering 400 questionnaires to 25 private schools in Amman, Jordan, out of which 200 questionnaires each were distributed to teachers and students of the schools under study. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS. Descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation, and percentage were used to test the effect of teaching- learning English as a third language. One-Sample Test was used to test the hypothesis.
