It happens that in countries such as Spain there are expat British\/Irish\/American students who attend to state schools and they have EFL lessons. Of course it\u2019d be better if during that period they attended some other lesson, but sadly this doesn\u2019t happen too often. So Some teachers make these students help them, as if they were assistants; others give them higher level materials, but usually they are not mature enough to cope with them\u2026So, how can we cater for this diversity in a mixed ability group, with native students in it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
