Last unit explains some of the most common problems teachers face during their career and also suggested the solution to face them. first lessons are always difficult. Teachers may walk into the classroom which the students are new group or existing group. The most important point is that teachers must try to establish rapport the students and also the teacher. Surveys, questionnaire, needs analysis and pass the ball game would assist teachers in this regard. Warmer techniques and activities such as hangman, pictionary, tongue twisters are also crucial for the first class. Another issue teachers would face during their teaching career is when students are not at the same level and to face this issue teachers can either use different materials or different tasks or pair stronger students with the weaker ones. Another problematic issue is when students use their mother tongue in the class and this can decrease their learning process. To minimize this issue teachers must make sure the activities that are used are at the appropriate level and explanations are clear to all students. When it comes to audio practices (listening activities) teachers must make sure the sound quality is clear and adapt the speed that are appropriate for majority of students in the class.
