In the given article the problem of teaching English at mixed classes and its solution is studied. If we take into consideration the role of teacher and learner in acquiring the knowledge of a language, the problems can be solved effectively. One of the greatest challenges experienced by teachers teaching students who learn English as a foreign or a second language is teaching a class consisting of fast learners and slow learners commonly referred to as mixed-ability classes. There are a great variety of classroom activities by means of which they can overcome difficulties of mixed ability classes. In our days every student requires an individual approach according to the abilities shown. One should get an extra task so as not to be bored, another barely manages to follow the lesson, yet another needs a lesser task and some extra attention
