Teaching English to Everyone at Once: A Survival Guide for Large, Mixed-Ability EFL Classrooms

Thirty-four students. Forty minutes. Several levels of English. One teacher.Most teacher training assumes a classroom that rarely exists: manageable numbers, similar ability levels, reliable resources, and enough time to give every learner individual attention.Teaching English to Everyone at Once is a practical field guide for teachers working with large, mixed-ability EFL classes. It replaces idealized advice with repeatable systems you can use in real lessons.Inside, you will learn how to: - start lessons quickly and give instructions that hold;- differentiate without writing several separate lesson plans;- support struggling learners while keeping early finishers engaged;- manage behavior with calm, scalable routines;- handle assessment, parent communication, limited resources, and burnout; and- put the system into practice with templates and a thirty-day plan.Written by a teacher who has taught English since 1999, this is the guide the author wishes had existed on day one.A well-managed classroom is not the final goal. It is what makes student confidence-and real English use-possible.
