Hi everyone, I am an educator who has taught in all different places (student teaching in schools, school and family programs in museums, an afterschool program, tutoring, etc.) I have taught adults in a couple of different settings, but I have much more experience working with children.
However, I just got a job for the new year teaching a GED-prep class for adults; I’ll be teaching all the subjects on the high school equivalency exam and helping a group of adults prepare for it so they can get their degree. It’s a pretty intensive program (four days a week, covering history, math, literature, etc). I’ve never done anything quite like this, and I’m a little intimidated. Does anyone who has taught adults in a similar capacity have any advice or specific resources to suggest? I’m looking for suggested strategies on how to connect with an adult audience, specific things to be aware of when teaching adults that might be different from teaching kids, etc. Or if this isn’t quite the right subreddit I’d appreciate if someone could direct me to a more appropriate one. Thanks so much!
