How do I teach across age levels?

[Clough]

Hi, maijidda!

What are the ages and subject matter(s) that would need to be taught? It would be helpful to have addition information from you as to what, specifically, this is concerning, please?

Thanks!

Well, I think that it is not that hard to teach across age levels, because some are easier, and some aare harder. That is why I would like to teach across age levels.

Well, first of all, teach is not an easy task, right? But you as a teacher have on your hands the key to the success. It is not the same to teach to children that adults, they do not have the same needs. And also you cannot caretaker to adults, they could feel uncomfortable! Do not treat adults in your class like a children. Also, adults are more able to handle abstract rules and concepts, whereas children do not.To some mature people games are not a right item to teach them, however, for few they are great. Focus in your class´needs. On the other hand, children exercise a good deal of both cognitive and affective effort in order to internalize both native and second languages. A good point to remember is to keep children laughing and learning, and as a teacher, you must have to be animated;enthusiastic and lively and also you must need a widely variety of activities as well. Children need to have all five senses stimulated. Remember to put in your students shoes!. (A brief overview Based in Brown´s book).
