Many have said that teaching young learners is the most rewarding groups to teach. Each groups have their own difficulties and problems so you have approach each problems differently. With young learners, it is best to be positive and have many activities since their attention span is short. Younger learners are like sponges and they require more activities to soak up the material. Teaching business English will often be for older learners from age 20-50. It is important to have a needs assessment to know what they want to learn and what they will be using the language for because at that point, you do not know what to teach them or even know what their English level is. Teaching at any level requires tons of patience, some groups more than others. But as we have learned through out these past couple units, it is important that we focus on the learners and if we provide the materials that are align in their interest, it would be easier for them to take in the material we teach. Teaching business English also requires more preparation time and professionalism. It is recommended that we know their goals in learning English and their organization, such as if they have their superiors in the class or what kind of business does their organization engage in.
I think what teaching has in common with all groups is that we have to plan and prepare ahead of time. Take in consideration of the learners and possible problems and prepare a solution ahead of time just in case it does happen. Being a teacher has a lot of responsibility, awareness, and again patience.
