We cannot use the same methodology or same techniques to teach different kinds of people. We should differentiate the teaching ways and the teaching instruction. For me, when I am teaching the little kids in my school, we try to use kids' language to speak with them. Make it as simple as possible. We try to entertain them in different kinds of activities. They have a short attention span so we need to make full...  [Read more]
