The purpose of this article is to show the importance of age related techniques used in classes that help students enjoy, learn and speak a foreign language. There are different techniques used at different ages. However, it is also important to build a good relationship and in order to do so, teacher must know his/her students’ goals, age, foreign language level, interests and background and furthermore real practice of lesson topics.
