-There are fewer disciplinary problems. No zero, because lateness, absenteeism, and homework not being completed are still fairly common when teaching adults. -You can build relationships with adult students that will last a lifetime. Since you may be new to the country you are teaching in, you can learn so much from your students. They will often be willing to help you out in adjusting to your new country, and often be willing to show you around or to take you out for coffee or meals. You may also be able to relate to your adult students more than children. You can have everyday conversations with them, which may not be possible with small children. *It is very important to keep your relationships professional with adult students though.* You are still their teacher, which requires you to play a certain role in their academic lives. -Obviously the lessons you teach will need to be different than the ones you would teach children. With adults lessons should be age appropriate and relevant. Although you'll find adults also like games, dramas and music in the classroom, you have to learn who your students are and what they expect before engaging in less conventional teaching practices.

You are a member of a book club.You received this e-mail from the principials: Dear member, Our Germany teacher is ill . For this reason we are searching for ways to teach pupils by another teacher.Can you give your suggestions on this?
Hi Jane! You know I’m a member of book club and they are asking my opinion and suggestions about encoraging young generation to read books. I do not know what to say. Do you have any suggestions on this topic. Lets meet to exchange ideas before I write them. See you soon. Dilorom.
Dear Sir/Madam. I hope this reaches you in the best of health. I am writing this mail in response to your letter which I have received recently. I am pleased to share my suggestions about how to inspire young minds reading books instead of watching TV.
Firstly, reading books encourages the children not only to be open-minded about new and also develop their academic knowledge.
Secondly, parents should buy story books with full of pictures from their early age. It engages them in re
gular reading.
In addition, it is a good idea to organize reading book contests and give prizes for winners.
I hope my recommendations will be taken into consideration while making decision on the matter and look forward to hearing from you soon.
