							| HELP !!! LARGE CLASSES !!! NIGHTMARE !! o_O 
 |  
							| Hello everybody; I �m facing a problem these days. It �s my first time to teach large
classes. I have two classes within more than sixty students for each. They are
all teenagers. I �m against lecturing, but what kind of activity will save time
and be useful for them without losing the control or making the class mess. Could
you please help me??? |  5 Oct 2011

							| If you don �t have a lot of technical assistance in class, it may be a good idea to divide them into several groups, appoint a leader for each and give them more written exercises. The possibility for conversation under such awful conditions... Well, only if they are at least intermediate or are very motivated... Poor you!

							| Well, there is lack of technical assistance and all the students
are still beginners. I �ll try to use your tips Valgero.. but I think it
will be  challenging ... Thank you all for sharing your idea with me
