This unit?s content is about what makes us a good teacher and a good learner, the major differences of adult learners from young learners, the distinction level of student?s language skills and the reasons why students study English. For us to be a good teacher we should know and understand learners well, including their background, their weaknesses, and the reasons why they have to study the language. We should know how to encourage them to do their best and motivate each of them for success. Teacher and student?s relationship plays a vital role in class that is why building a good rapport with the students would help teachers to motivate learners more effectively. Learners, on the other hand, should have a desire to learn the language, willingness to do their own learning process and methods, etc. to be a good learner. As for the teacher?s role, they should know when and what role should they employ during the class. They have to think of the role that best suits their students. They shouldn?t be always dominant and just pay too much attention of themselves but have to be more concern about the learning process of the students.
