Chapter 8: Teaching Teenagers Who Are Still Learning English

This chapter really stresses the idea and concepts to teaching students who are still learning English. The idea I liked most that this chapter presented was the idea of presenting photographs, movies, analogues, etc. to help these students make connections. Not only do these teaching ideas help students make connections, they also help students who learn more visually. It is also important to be flexible when students make mistakes using their English. It is an unfamiliar language and if you penalize students for these mistakes they will become more discouraged. Overall, this chapter provided great tips for teachers to use when they are teaching students who are still learning English
