Characteristics of juniors and teens
According to Brewster (2004: 27) juniors and

teens:
are still in the process of learning their L1;
learn more slowly and forget things quickly;
can easily be distracted;
are self-oriented;
are very energetic and enthusiastic;
can be disruptive or over-active;
are very emotional and can get bored easily;
can be focused for a significant time if interested.

Characteristics of juniors and teens
Although Penny Ur suggests that teenage students

are in fact overall the best language learners (1996:286), there is a belief that teenagers are often less motivated than both younger children and adults (Puchta 1999: 4).

Characteristics of juniors and teens
According to Harmer (2001:39), young learners need

individual attention and approval from the teacher, whereas peer approval might be essential for adolescents. Also, children usually have a low awareness of the social skills basic to cooperative interaction. What is more, they might present outright discipline problems being apathetic and unruly.
