So think about people in high school. If some students are maybe going to an English-speaking University, obviously their needs are very, very different from someone who's going to a technical college or Technical University to study car mechanics in their own country. So definitely do a needs assessment and try to meet students' needs. Do they have to prepare for the IELTS exam? Are they going to a Canada or the U.S to study? Or, are they just staying in their own country and maybe just want to like be able to say hello to a foreigner that they happen to see on the street? So definitely check with them and find out.
