Esl English For Adults

The basic answer to this question is No, it is not necessarily easier to teach English to any particular age group.

If left unaddressed small issues can grow into bigger problems, but with a bit of knowledge and experience most teachers are able to confidently deal with any problems and keep the class running efficiently. What one teacher considers to be bad behavior might not be an issue in another teacher’s class, as we all have...  [Read more]

  The dynamics of classroom interaction is often dictated by the arrangement of the classroom itself and the way in which the classroom is arranged could depend upon a number of factors and they might include things such as the age of the students, so for example we're unlikely to have the same arrangement for adult learners as we would have for young learners. It could also depend upon the actual physical space available. The physical space may determine how we have to arrange our classroom to maximize the opportunity for interaction and so forth. It will also depend on what material is available and by material in this case we're talking about the actual desks and chairs and so on and so forth. Perhaps the final thing we might put here is that it could also depend upon the...  [Read more]
