Default Re: How to Teach a Quiet Class and Make the Lessons Interesting?

What country are you in?
What is the nationality of the students?
How long did the students have the other teacher?
Do you think they are afraid?
Here in California, we get students from many countries, and usually the students aren't quiet and passive.
Do not give them activities that are too high for their skills. They probably won't tell you if something is too hard.
Students take awhile to adjust to a change of teachers.
