Problem 1
Teaching heterogeneous classes isone of the biggest challenges an
English teacher may face .
How to teach heterogeneous classes ?
Individualization is an option which allows pupils to work according to their own level and interests.
Individualizaion can be implemented by means of: work cards extensive reading dialogue journals
Work Cards should include:
a form which indicates what kind of work the pupil has been doing and at what level;
the “corrected” column that refers to whether the pupil has corrected the work;
an answer key allows the teacher to check if the pupil is progressing;
the comments column can be used both by the teacher and the pupil for any remarks.
Extensive reading allows each pupil to choose a book at his own level. The pupils should read for pleasure. It will give them a feeling of satisfaction. There should be a wide variety of books to choose from.
Dialogue Journals can give the pupils an opportunity to freely express themselves.
The advantages in teaching heterogeneous classes:
• variety of different backgrounds. Pupils can benefit from different interests, cultural backgrounds and world knowledge resulting in more dynamic classroom interaction.
• motivation as both the weak and average pupils are motivated to try and improve their knowledge of English because of the input of the stronger pupils.
