Re: Help needed with teenagers Mary1 this sounds like one of my classes! I also teach some teenagers in Spain. I have two groups of about 13/14 yr olds that are doing a coursebook for PET(so the courseboo doesn´t really appeal to them much!). One group is much better than the other. I´ve tried doing extra activities for communication but most of the time they don´t listen, talk, do the activity in Spanish etc. I´m at my wits end and usually end up stopping the activity and going back to the book. I´m thinking of trying a no Spanish policy as suggested and see if that works. I feel like I can´t do anything fun as they just don´t seem interested in anything!Would love any further suggestions of how to turn this class around! |
