Dear teacher,

The students who sit in your class are a heterogeneous group. Everything from family background to IQ level has an impact on the language acquisition of each one of them. More and more teachers today realise the need to see things from the learner's point of view, to gain a better understanding of the mindset of their learners. This segment has been designed to help you gain a better understanding and insight into the minds of your young students.

Featured here are articles by educational psychologists, clinical psychiatrists and ELT experts on various topics - from ELT specific ones like language development in children, assessment and evaluation in the language classroom to general topics like common behavioural problems and child psychology.
