This article explores the integration of global perspectives into English teaching as a means to navigate intercultural communication in the classroom. In an increasingly interconnected world, the role of English language education extends beyond linguistic proficiency to encompass cultural competence and cross-cultural communication skills. Drawing on key concepts in intercultural communication, this paper examines the importance of understanding cultural context, challenging stereotypes, and promoting empathy and respect for diverse perspectives. Through practical strategies such as cultural content integration, intercultural exchanges, and critical cultural analysis, English teachers can create inclusive learning environments that empower students to communicate effectively across cultural boundaries. By embracing global perspectives, English teaching becomes a catalyst for fostering intercultural understanding, empathy, and collaboration among students from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
