While in class, teachers do encounter a number of problems. For a first lesson, the teacher should not use the course book but rather, engage students in various activities so as to establish rapport,find out the students needs and their level. A teacher should also inspire, motivate and engage the students through warm up activities, at the start of each lesson. If faced with students of different levels in a class, the teacher should pair the stronger students with the weaker students and not make the stronger students to dominate the class. The teacher should also avoid using the students native language while talking to them. Group work activities are a good idea to use in large classes, whereas per-teaching potentially difficult vocabulary before a listening task enables the students to understand it better. With reluctant students, they can be engaged in role play, controlled practice and pair work. I have learnt these, among other solutions, to handle problems that might come up during a lesson.
