The word "difference" implies subtraction. The word "squares" implies a perfect square term or number.

To recognize the "difference of squares" look for 2 perfect square terms, one being subtracted from the other.

Ex.

x2 - 16. "x" is being squared and 16 is a perfect square. They are being subtracted.

Factors: (x+4)(x-4)
