TEACHING ACROSS AGE LEVELS

Teaching Children

Let us get the picture: a classroom full of children standing, yelling, running, etc. in other words; being children. The teacher has a lot of work to do, he or she must be focus on teaching the essential, in an entertaining and interesting  way because kids get bored easily.  The activities must be physical and short, in order to keep the children`s all five senses stimulated.
The teacher needs to help children by encouraging their self-steem bcause children are very sensitives, tthey can be extremely damage with only one word.  A special person is needed to be able to teach children. He or she must be patient, tender, active and at the same time disciplined. I believe we all remember with love and gratitude a special teacher from our childhood and is because he or she full filled  our learning necessities in a loving way.

Teaching Adults 

Many of the rules of teaching children are applied in teaching adults. The activities must be kept short, teachers must be careful with the emotional factors as well, the teacher have to encourage the student. The most excited part about teaching adults is that they are able to understand context of language, they can memorize structures  patterns, but not because they can do that, the teacher will demand the student to know everything. The teacher must remember that even though the student is an adult, he is still learning.

You have to keep in mind some differences between teaching children and adults:

1. Do not treat adults like children, avoid call them "kids" 
2. Do not push them to much remember that they are learning
3.The activities must be according to their level and capacities

Teaching Teens

This teaching level is the one  that has major challenge because teens are between childhood and adulthood it means that they still do not know who they really are and what they want, at this stage they are shaping their personalities so the teacher must implement activities that caught their attention and to keep their self-esteem high; this is because teens are extremely sensitive.
 The teacher have to evoid embarrasing situations such as laughing from others mistakes,yelling in front of the group by telling the student that did it wrong. 
On the other hand the teacher must encourage the student by feeding their ego in phrases like"you are doing a good job", "excellent", etc.; in that way  the teacher will be providing a comfortable atmosphere in which the student will feel free to work on.
