Much of the emphasis in the literature on the influence of culture on English as a foreign or second language education has been on the profiling of regional traits. This is flawed in two respects. First, such profiling is far too generalised, given the complexity of the societies concerned. Secondly, it helps to perpetuate a learning group ideal to which these cultural influences are seen as constraints, and inhibits the development of both classroom teaching and teacher education methodologies which might be appropriate to other types of scenario. These scenarios are marked by cultural differences, but as much by education, institution and student cultures, which often have international or universal dimensions, as by national or regional cultural traits. In both cases, regional culture profiling strengthens the possibility of a micro cultural imperialism at the level of classroom methodology.
