AI Teaching Skills: Adapting Speaking Tasks for Mixed-Ability Classes

Speaking is the hardest skill to get right in mixed-ability classes. Stronger students finish quickly and get bored. Quieter students say nothing. And you’re stuck in the middle, trying to make one task work for everyone.

Join our upcoming webinar to learn how AI can help you adapt speaking tasks quickly—without rewriting your whole lesson. You’ll see how small changes can help all your students participate and make progress.

You’ll learn how to:

• Support lower-level students so they can say more
• Keep stronger students challenged and engaged
• Support quiet students without putting them on the spot
• Adapt coursebook tasks in minutes—not hours

Leave with ready-to-use prompts and practical strategies to support all your learners in speaking—without

adding hours to your planning.
