Abstract
Over the years, language scholars have fore-grounded the need to incorporate cultural knowledge into second language teaching and learning owing to consensus that culture is not only inseparably related to lapguage, but also plays an important role throughout the process of language teaching and learning. This concern bifurcates into the question of whether culture should be taught alongside the English language as a second language, and how to in corporate culture in the teaching of English. This work, therefore, seeks to establish the relationship between language and culture, especially as it relates to the four language skills; how to teach culture alongside English language in a second language context; pro blems inherent in this cross-cultural communication and their possible solutions. It was recommended that the inclusion of culture in language teaching will help reduce ethnocentric stereotypes amongst learners and achieve a greater cross-cultural understanding amongst cultures.
