This unit, although brief, gave some some excellent tips on troubleshooting some common problems. I found the tips for a large classroom to be particularly helpful. I recently began teaching a class of 25 adults of various levels. My concern was that some of the lower level students would become frustrated while the higher level students would become bored. I like the idea of pairing the levels up and utilizing the higher level students as helpers to the lower level students. I believe that will also help the higher level students retain what they have learned. The curriculum we use is called Step Forward and has listening CD's. I have been tempted to skip these because the dialog is fast and can not be slowed down with our CD player. I learned that I should NOT skip these as listening skills are very important. I will begin to use them and modify what information I would like the lower levels to listen for. That was something I needed to read! I have gained so much knowledge from this course. From the very beginning of the class that I teach I have utilized the ESA lesson plans. I have found this so helpful with my lesson planning. I have also bought many of the books that ITTT recommended. Teaching English to refugees and immigrants has been made so much easier because of this course. Every unit, even this small one, had great information. I have printed out all of the units and placed them in a 3-ring binder for future reference.
