Education enables individuals to open their minds and perceive things in a different way. Also, it majorly affects our understanding of the difference between right and wrong. In this post, I will mention about the differences between young learners and adult learners.
Young learners need to be given a variety
of activities and games in the classroom. They love playing, singing because
they are young and energetic. For example, using music helps social and
personal development, improve imagination and learning. Also, it is necessary
to be in charge of the classroom, giving clear instructions and dealing
effectively with classroom management. Also, young learners are less motivated.
They have no choice, which means that they may lose enthusiasm if they are not
interested in what is happening in the classroom. They are impatient,
undisciplined and intolerant. Also, young learners are still learning about the
world around them.
On the other hand, adult learners focus on
learning directly rather than wasting time with playing or singing. Also,
unlike young learners, they are independent. They do not need someone to give
clear instructions. Also, adults are more likely to be more motivated. Because,
they are learning voluntarily and committed to their studies. They, also, tend
to be more disciplined and cooperative. Adults have already had a lifetime of
experiences and have their own ideas and opinions.
In conclusion, there
are differences between young learners and adult learners such as learning
ways, autonomies,
motivations, disciplines and life experiences.
