Course materials can be divided into authentic and non-authentic materials and can be used to achieve different agendas. Authentic materials are derived from the things a native speaker would hear and use on a daily basis and provides the students with a real view of what they can use their language for. Understanding this type of text will give them confidence Non-authentic texts are typically made by the teacher and are easily controlled according to the teachers' needs for his/her students. Published course materials can be both a pleasure and a pain regarding different aspects of teaching English to students. Pros of using course materials are that they are suited to the students' level of understanding, they provide all aspects of the course needed for their level, it is less time consuming for the teachers to teach, it provides grading to a level suitable for the students. However these course materials may also detract from making an interesting and informative lesson tailored to the students exact needs as it provides a general syllabus designed for a wide-ranging audience rather than an individual class. Due to this is better to ensure that the teacher can provide good supplementary materials to the course work to keep the lessons flexible and interesting for the students.
