THIS LESSON FOCUSES ON DIFFERENCES IN TEACHING ENGLISH AS SECOND LANGUAGE DEPENDING ON DIFFERENT LEVEL AND DIFFERENT PURPOSE. YOU TEACH GENERAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE TO THE BEGINNERS WHO ARE ALL THOSE THAT HAVE NOT NEVER BEEN EXPOSED TO ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE OR, EVEN THOUGH HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED, THEY DO NOT RETAIN SO MUCH. SO, WE HAVE TO DISTINGUISH AMONG THE ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS, THE FALSE, THE ADULTS AND YOUNGER ONES AND ALSO THE BEGINNERS WITHOUT ROMAN ALPHABET (THE HARDEST ONE OF COURSE!). TEACHING TO BEGINNERS REQUIRES SEVERAL SKILLS AND AWARENESS: YOU HAVE TO SPEAK SLOWLY AND CLEARLY, BE AS MORE VISUAL AS POSSIBLE, USE THE NATIVE LANGUAGE AS LESS AS POSSIBLE, ARRANGE PAIRS AND GROUP OF WORK AND SO ON. IF WE ARE TALKING ABOUT YOUNGER BEGINNERS YOU HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL AND SENSITIVE IN ORDER TO BE FAIR WITH ALL THE STUDENTS SINCE THEY USE TO BE VERY RECEPTIVE ABOUT THIS. THE YOUNGER BEGINNERS ARE LESS MOTIVATED THAN ADULTS ONES, SO TRY TO BE AS MUCH CREATIVITY DURING THE LESSON IN ORDER TO AVOID THEY KEEP BORED. YOU CAN TEACH TO A GROUP COMPOSED BY 6 - 12 PEOPLE OR TO A SINGLE PERSON. GROUP CAN BE COMPOSED BY PEOPLE COMING FROM THE SAME COUNTRY OR COMING FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES AND CULTURES WITH A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF ENGLISH SKILLS. IN THIS LAST CASE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE TEACHER HAS TO SERIOUSLY TAKE IN CONSIDERATION ABOUT THOSE DIFFERENCES AND DO HER BEST TO DO NOT MAKE DIFFERENCES OR PREFERENCES. LESSON 1 TO ONE ARE PROGRESSIVELY BECOMING MORE AND MORE. IN THIS TYPE OF CLASS THERE ARE MANY ADVANTAGES BOTH FOR THE TEACHER AND THE STUDENT EVEN THOUGH THERE CANNOT BE PRESENT MANY OTHER POSITIVE ASPECTS TYPICAL OF GROUP CLASSES. BUSINESS ENGLISH LESSON ARE FOCUSED ON A MORE TECHNICAL LANGUAGE THAT CHANGES DEPENDING ON THE ECONOMIC FIELD. THE CLASS CAN BE COMPOSED BY PERSON WORKING FOR THE SAME COMPANY OR WORKING FOR DIFFERENT COMPANIES AND THEY CAN BE ARRANGED INSIDE OR OUTSIDE THE COMPANY.
