Educational linguistics is a relatively new linguistics sub-discipline concerning the full range of questions of the relation between language and education. It is considered as a problem- and practice-based field whose research questions, theoretical structures, and contributions are focused on issues and concerns in education. This paper attempts to give an overview of the richness, diversity and interdisciplinary topics involved in the field of educational linguistics. Also, this work importantly endeavours to shed light on the interface between educational linguistics and applied linguistics, and how both subfields overlap in their implications and implementations. Equally important, this study highlights the importance of the educational linguistics in language classrooms. So, this paper showcases and opens new avenues for the sub-discipline “Educational Linguistics” and draw educationalists attention to the interpretation and implementation of such a topic.
