This unit provided some helpful strategies when interacting with a new class and some common problems that an English teacher may face. It is really important to establish rapport with your students as soon as possible. This will help the students be comfortable with you and more receptive to your lessons. Some ways to establish rapport are a question survey, a pass ball game, and needs analysis. You want to learn your students interests so you can include them in your lesson plan. A challenge that may arise is students being a different levels. To counteract this, you want to pair the stronger students with the weaker students. You also want to make sure that you are challenging the stronger students, so they don't get bored, while also not intimidating the weaker students, so they don't get discouraged. A way to do this is splitting them into two groups and giving them the appropriate worksheets. You want to encourage English as much as possible so you do not want to use the students native language.
