This unit focuses on the different types of learners or classes that we will handle in teaching the English languag.
According to this unit, we have five types of learners or classe.
These include a) the beginners where in they are subdivided into six categories such as absolute beginner, false beginner, adult beginner, young beginner, and beginner without Roman alphabet; b) individual students which include same level students and a -on-one lesson is given by the teacher to each of them; c) young learners which includes children in a lower age bracke.

And last but not the least, e) the monolingual class and multilingual class where in; in monolingual class the learners have same difficulty in English since they come from same home counties while multilingual class are consist of learners who come from various nationalities however, they have no common language except Englis.
Meanwhile, since this unit focuses on the classes of learners it only implies that as educators we can teach English in varied ways depending on the needs of our learners and their classe.
Therefore, it is essential for us educators to carefully plan the different activities that we are going to provide to our learners in order to address their need.

We as educators should find ways to adjust our way of teaching to the level or capabilities of our learners since I believe that effective learning will occur when students' interests are directly proportional with our teaching methodologies and practice.
