Introduction

Working as a teacher in English provides challenges every day. The teacher has to face 25-30 students at a time who are all at different levels of ability, have varying motivation for working with English and have their own special interests and experiences. The teacher meets these mixed-ability classes each day.

I am going to write about what mixed-ability classes are and the challenges they present but most of all how a teacher should work in these classes in order to help all the students, especially the weaker ones.
