Match your students’ needs: differentiate your lessons
Ideally, every teacher wants to match the level and needs of their students. In practice, this can be quite difficult if you consider crowded classes, lack of time and busy diaries. Yet making small, meaningful adjustments to your lessons can make a big difference!
Students are much more cooperative if you match their needs by differentiating your lesson material. Especially if you are teaching a restless group of students with big differences in levels and attitudes. Creating differentiated content might cost you some effort at the beginning, but on the long run it will save you a lot of time and energy.
