In this unit, I learned about authentic and created materials as well as the advantages and disadvantages of using a course book. For most classes, a course book comes assigned with it, but from this lesson I learned that it is important to decide how to use the book depending on the type of class you\"re teaching. It is not wise to never stray away from your textbook for that will bore your students and that method may miss the opportunity to teach useful every-day English. I am currently an assistant language teacher in Japan, but my co-teacher refuses to teach language that is not in the textbook in fear of confusing the students. I disagree, especially if the content is something used often in a native speaker's life.
