The teaching and learning of economics in English presents significant challenges due to the abstract nature of economic concepts and the linguistic barriers faced by non-native English-speaking students. This paper investigates a range of pedagogical methods aimed at simplifying economic concepts without compromising their theoretical accuracy. The study adopts a qualitative analytical approach based on existing scholarly literature, focusing on six major strategies: linguistic simplification, contextualization, visual representation, structured instruction, analogical reasoning, and interactive learning techniques. The findings suggest that a combined application of these approaches significantly enhances students’ comprehension, engagement, and analytical skills. The paper contributes to the field of economics education by proposing a framework for effective teaching practices in English-medium instruction environments.
