Teachers Teaching Adults

Evidently, teaching children is different from teaching adolescents or adults.  Each age group has its own characteristics, motivation, pace, needs. It is fundamental teachers hold this very clear. There's a lot at stake! Some time ago I prepared this presentation on teaching adults and included some situations that adults go through when they decide to dedicate time to learn/improve their English skills. The idea was to trigger debate, consider different points of view, and help teachers plan the best course for their students. I used Prezi , in this case, to present my work to the teachers but uploaded a presentation I had already prepared using PowerPoint.   Hope you find it helpful.
