      I worked collaboratively with my students' English teacher as well for an in-class debate. The topic was about Economics, and they must reading a large number of articles/papers/news... related to Economics topics they selected and demonstrate their viewpoints and arguments with well-explained examples and other supportive evidence in English. This debate was aimed to help students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of text and foster perseverance and passion for deep reading of worthy texts. Such interdisciplinary activities were quite meaningful and fun if well-designed.

      Mr. Elfert can adjust his instruction quickly based on students' performance in group discussions. I used to group students randomly because I thought it was unfair to purely group them based on their English language proficiency and/or learning abilities. However, sometimes some students felt that they were always falling behind their peers and therefore felt frustrated and disappointed on themselves.

      Ms. Hatwal is so amazing that she can quickly observe and summarize students' learning needs by gathering evidence during their interaction and categorize several students with common needs into the same mini-lesson to help them together.

      I used to encourage students to express their opinions and thoughts in class bravely, and when some students were stuck there and could not respond to text-based questions in English, I allowed them to continue in their primary language.

      When I worked in a Chinese international high school, my students had different levels of English language proficiencies: some students' primary language was English, some went back to China from the States due to the pandemic, so they could speak fluent English, and some others can barely speak English, let alone express their ideas in English. However, I also noticed that their language proficiency was not necessarily related to their understanding of content and their assessment performance.

      I used to be a high school Economics teacher, my previous students and I really liked to form small groups and discuss short articles in The Economist and/or the latest news. Through this group activity, students could relate what they had learned in the textbook to real-life issues. Moreover, I could assess students' reading comprehension and build their analytical reading skills, and students had opportunities to develop their communication and teamwork skills.

      Differentiated teaching and learning is important. In my previous workplace, which is an International Baccalaureate school, when G10 students were about to make decisions on course selections for G11&12 (they must choose 3 high-level (HL) courses and 3 standard-level (SL) courses), teachers could give them proper suggestions based on their performance in formative assessments.
