In this unit we looked at some of the most common problem situations that teachers can encounter in the classroom and some suggested ways of dealing with them. These are some of the problems we discussed. With first lessons teachers are likely to meet new classes for for the first time,here it is important for the teacher to establish rapport with the new students. The use of warmers such as memory games,tongue twisters and the like can be used to stimulate students interest to get to the mood for English. Another problem teachers encounter is having students in a group with different levels. Here a teacher can pair stronger students with the weaker ones or split them and use different course materials suitable for each level,there are other different ways to go about this situation. Other problems teachers are likely to encounter include teaching a large class, some students using native language in class,students who are not willing to participate in class and also students who have difficulties with listening texts,with all these problems we looked at various ways to deal with them as the need arises. I have learnt so much from this course and I believe it will help me a great deal in my teaching career.
