Needs of special groups vary between your standard English class and young learners and business English learners. Therefore the approach used to teach these various types of class need to vary too. This is done by taking into account the different needs and goals required by each type of class. For example, teaching young children has a more psychological aspect to it in that it is more about allowing the learners to have fun while participating in the acquisition of the English language through repetition, games, songs and generally having a good time. This does open the way for bad behavior to take place but should be correctly identified and dealt with by the teacher before it becomes too serious. Teaching business English is thought to be a specialized branch of English teaching but many properties of which are very similar to teaching in the standard English class. Business English clients require more understanding of personal day to day life by the teacher so as to be knowledgeable over how much work they may be able to cover realistically. The clients may also be very motivated but lacking in time to be able to arrive for class or do any homework. Ages of these clients may vary greatly therefore they may have different learning speeds. Teachers need to be accommodating of these issues while still ensuring they are able to learn what they need to. Conducting a needs analysis is vital to ensuring the teacher is able to cover exactly what it is that these students require from their English lessons. Vital questions about their business, previous knowledge and language ability among other things can provide the teacher with a good understanding for how to conduct his/her lessons.
