The most for me, is that when I teach English to students who speak Native in a Language in which I am an L2 of (bear in mind my L2 are, Spanish, Afrikaans, Greek) We find unique ways to both help one another on certain things we both find difficult from what we know in both our L1 and L2 languages . We are all teachers and learners to one another in the world :)

- How do you determine which teaching material will suit which kind of student?

Just as no single vehicle can meet the needs of every driver, teaching materials should be adapted to fit the diverse profiles of students. By understanding the unique characteristics, preferences, and goals of each student, we as educators can choose or develop materials that cater to their specific needs, leading to a more effective and personalized learning experience. For example, think of beginner students as compact cars: they’re small, practical, and easy to handle, making them perfect for those just starting to learn the ropes of driving:)
