"I think you could make them reach so much further" : Three high school teachers' views on individualised English teaching

The aim of this study is to explore how three English teachers in Swedish compulsory school work towards fulfilling the task of meeting every single student's individual needs when it comes to learning. By interviewing these teachers, the study aims to answer the following questions: What does individualised teaching mean to the three interviewed teachers? What kind of challenges do they face when it comes to meeting the needs of all the students and how do they work with individualised teaching? One of the biggest challenges the teachers face when they attempt to individualise teaching is that is takes a lot of time to analyse every single student's individual needs and it is not always obvious what kind of need the teacher has to take into account when trying to individualise the lesson for the learner. Bigger classes result in the fact that teachers are not always able to meet the requirement found in Lgr 11 that teachers must meet every single student's individual needs
