Description

Academic and professional success depend on the ability to communicate
effectively in English, but traditional high school education frequently falls short of
meeting the needs of a diverse student body. One promising approach is
differentiated learning, which adjusts the process, content, and evaluation to the
readiness, interests, and learning preferences of the students. This study investigates
the application of differentiated learning in English classrooms using a qualitative
methodology. The results show both advantages and disadvantages, including longer
preparation times and limited resources. Diverse assessments, adaptable lesson
planning, and sufficient teacher preparation are necessary for effective differentiation.
Resolving these issues can improve English language learners' academic performance
and level of engagement.
