Teaching Large Efl Classes: Highlighting The Problem And Responding Constructively



Authors : Mokeddem Samiha .

Abstract

Overcrowded classrooms tend to be a standard feature of most EFL classes in many countries around the world. And even though EFL teachers instinctively feel that they could do a better job in smaller classes, they still often find themselves having to cope with large classes. The current paper presents an overview of the literature on large classes in EFL teaching. It reviews findings concerning the size of large classes as well as the disadvantages and advantages large classes pose for EFL teachers and learners, and finally, suggests a set of tips that can minimize the drawbacks prevailing in these classrooms. By reading this article, it is hoped that many EFL teachers will not only have some awareness of how to better meet the key challenges of large classroom teaching but also how it is possible for the positive aspects of teaching small classes to be stimulated in large-class environments.
