case study for esl students

Teaching English

Teachers' zone, using case studies in the esl classroom, by lynne hand.

The terminology surrounding "case studies" tends to be confusing, running the gamut from simply "case," to "case history," "case analysis," "case problem," and the familiar "case study".

As you know I am always on the look out for original materials for use in my classes. I find that my students appreciate real world experiences in the classroom and case studies provide them with real life situations for discussion and evaluation. They are particularly useful for business English classes. Jolliffe writes, "through class discussions of the situations and people in the cases, students will hone their insights, perceptions, thought processes and interpersonal skills. . ." .

According to Silverman the following two factors are as important in Case Study Teaching as they are in any other forms of teaching, perhaps even more so, because an instructor has less control with case discussion than other forms of teaching.

• What do you want students to learn from the discussion of the case?
• What do they know already that applies to the case?
• What are the issues (central and peripheral) that may be raised in discussion?
• Can the case "carry" the discussion (Is it appropriate to your objectives)?
• how the case and discussion will be introduced
• preparation expected of students (written, submitted, papers?)
• the opening question(s)
• how much time is needed for the issues to be discussed
• concepts to be applied and/or extracted in discussion
• concluding the discussion
• evaluating the discussion (students', your own)
• evaluating the participants (grades for participation?)

Running a case study

To get started – select a short case study that covers the skills you want your students to practise. Read it several times and consider how it fits with your student-learning objectives for the class (you need to think about why you are teaching this case at this time).

Arrange the classroom so that students can talk face-to-face.

Prepare a set of questions for students to write out as homework before running the case in class.

For class, prepare another set of questions to move students through the stages of case analysis.

Who are the people in the case? Where is the case study situated? Why has the situation (problem) occured? What possibilities for action are there? How should the people in the case study proceed?

At the end conduct a teacher-led summary and conclusion discussion, assessing what your students have achieved.

Discussing business case studies

LESSON OVERVIEW

Thanks to this business case study worksheet, students learn phrasal verbs to talk about companies, watch a video presenting a case study and discuss situations in which companies face different problems .

This is a Flipped Classroom lesson plan. In a nutshell, it means that the first part of the lesson needs to be done by students at home. Learn more about flipped classroom and how we implement it in these lesson plans in our post.

PRE‐CLASS ACTIVITIES

The pre‐class part includes two vocabulary exercises . First, students read a few sentences and have to choose the best word (A, B or C) to complete them. Thanks to that, students will l earn words and phrases such as flat revenues, equity stake, majority shareholder , etc. All of the vocabulary will later appear in the video. Next, students read some sentences and complete phrasal verbs with the correct words provided in the box. The phrasal verbs in this exercise are connected with companies and their operations, e.g. buy out, step aside or sell off .

IN‐CLASS ACTIVITIES

Video & discussion.

The in‐class part starts with a short discussion about companies, the problems they face and some exit strategies. After that, students watch the first part of a short video presenting a business case study and need to complete a table with the missing information. In the second listening comprehension task, students watch the rest of the video and need to discuss a few questions .

Vocabulary & Case Studies

Then, students read three short texts and have to complete them with missing prepositions. Apart from checking students’ knowledge of phrasal verbs they learnt beforehand, we also revise some common expressions such as see eye to eye, click with someone or be on the same page . After completing the texts, in their own words, students need to explain what the expressions mean. Finally, this business case study worksheet ends with a discussion. Students read the three situations again,   weigh up the possible options and say what decisions they would take when faced with such challenges.

You’re the BEST! Going to try this brand new class tomorrow and let you know how it goes 🙂

Perfect! Looking forward to your feedback 🙂

FANTASTIC! I’m really looking forward to use this in my coming lessons. Thank you!

Hi guys! Thanks for another great lesson plan. One question concerning exercise 2 sentence C: there is a choice between “step down” and “step aside”. The dictionary says that both expressions mean withdraw or resign from an important position or office. What do you think about this case?

Sorry! I’ve just realised my mistake 🙂

No worries, it happens 🙂

Hello, could ‘step down’ also be used in this case? Thanks

Hi! That’s right! In this exercise students need to complete the gaps and not choose one option. In that case we provided one correct option there, i.e. ‘step down’, and students need to find other word in the box that can also complete this phrasal verb, i.e. ‘aside’. So when they do it correctly, they end up with two correct options ‘step aside’ and ‘step down’ that can be both used in that case.

When I download the PowerPoint it’s all messed up and I can’t fix it. It always happens and I have always fixed all lessons but this one is just impossible to fix… I really want to use the lesson but I can’t. Can you help me, Pleeeeease?

As we design our lessons in Google Slides, we recommend using that for teaching online and editing our e-lesson plans. There’s an option to download our e-lesson plans in pptx but as you already know the formatting will be off. We simply can’t guarantee the same experience using pptx as when using Google Slides. I’m sorry but there’s not much I can do here. If you really need this lesson in an offline version, download it as a PDF. You’ll lose the animations and editing capabilities but it will look the way it should.

Excellent, as usual. I used in my class today. Awesome!

This is actually perfect for my business English students! Thank you so much 🙂

Thank you SO MUCH for this case studies. Case studies are so useful and in such high demand!!!

I’m happy they come in handy! You can find other lessons with case studies here

Thank you so much for this!! This eases my worry for the first bussiness english class tmr

Happy to hear that and good luck with your classes 🙂

Great content! It will be really useful for my classes. I really liked the case studies created in the end, as well as the video selected. The vocabulary activities are really good but they might be a little overwhelming. I decided to select some of them. Thanks for the amazing content!

I’ve created extra activities to boost students speaking. I could share if you wish.

Hi! Thanks for such positive feedback on the lesson plan, I’m really happy to hear that 🙂 Regarding the extra activities, sure, you can upload them somewhere and share a link with us here (as long as the activities are your original ideas and do not include any tasks from coursebooks, etc.).

Testimonial: "We have been able to integrate many of the cases into our courses here and they work great." - J.S. - Head of Business, Computer Studies, and Technology - 2022.

The case studies

Ideal for second-language learners and native english speakers.

These case studies cover the broad range of topics, including business strategy, marketing, operations management, small business, online business, success orientations, and more. They are set in current contexts. All cases are new or fully up-to-date. They have been specifically written in "global English" so that both second-language English learners ("ESL") and native English-speaking students will find them engaging. Perfect for Business English, ESL, corporate/organization trainees, Business bachelor degree (BBA, BCom), and Master of Business Administration (MBA) learners. The cases incorporate the following key principles:

1. Cases are shorter in length...but not short on quality!

ESL learners have varying English language skills. Some cultures are primarily verbal, making reading a difficult exercise for most students from those cultures. These business cases almost all shorter (<6 pages of reading). Each case has enough depth to illustrate a full business situation but not too much information, thereby making the reading of the case too difficult for students. These cases are all in-class and exam use tested and proven effective!

2. Cases are written in International English / Global English

The wording in these cases have been substantially normalized to international English. Most cultural cues, sayings, and analogies have been removed to ensure students don't spent too much time getting lost in the text and missing the core business learning problems presented. Specialized terminology is defined in plain English in the text or in a glossary.

3. Cases are accessible by a wide range of learning styles

Students have different learning styles. Most cases produced for business students are primarily text oriented, which is a strong bias that disadvantages a large number of international students who do not have a text/reading learning style. The cases here usually include pictures, diagrams, and/or videos, and can be supplemented with YouTube videos, online examples, and in some situations with physical samples to help tactile and kinesthetic learners.

10 reasons to use these cases:

• Feel confident in the classroom! - these high quality business cases work really well in the diverse classrooms with international students and domestic students. You can relax and enjoy teaching!
• Students will trust you - you are using authentic, clear, high quality, and easier to comprehend teaching materials. What is there not to like?
• Shorter in length - this means less reading for ESL and students from verbal cultures. They will still get all the necessary facts and a rigorous case study, but without the excess reading! (Can you say "happy students?")
• Global English - more comprehensible to students from other cultures. Fewer puzzled and uncertain looks from your ESL and international students!
• Easy to teach - clear and easy to understand, straight-forward lessons, engaging, proven, and authentic.
• Get rid of plagiarism! - using topical, high quality case studies in tests and exams means that you push students to analyze and construct solutions. They have little ability to cheat! How can they, when you are challenging them to individually solve problems and support their solutions with analysis from their own thinking?
• "Prep" fast and easy - use these cases to quickly and easily populate your courses with great learning opportunities for your students.
• Get help teaching the case - questions, comments, thoughts? Just email the author!
• Current and relevant cases - Most of these cases have been designed to match the current life realities of international ESL, business, and MBA learners. They are not set in corporate contexts that are worlds away from the reality of most students.
• Inexpensive and instant licensing - get these cases right now and without going through complicated institution buying processes! Instructor licenses are for you, the instructor, and are good for your entire teaching career! Use them again and again. Customize them to your needs, too!

From the Author:

Hello! My name is Paul Kurucz and I am the author of these cases. I have been teaching marketing, strategy, and operations management courses to bachelor and MBA business students for 25 years. I wrote these cases because my students - particularly my international students - really struggled to read and understand long and complicated "Ivy League" case studies that were set in completely unfamiliar contexts that the students would likely never experience in their professional lives. The problem? My students weren't learning the business lessons! They were grinding through the long and complicated languaging, structure and alien context of the cases I was using. Result? They learned that business cases are unfriendly, hard, irrelevant, and boring. As a result, not much learning took place. So I decided to write my own cases - cases that would engage all my learners using language and contexts that had some relevance to their lives. Cases that were shorter, easier to read, often including visuals for enhanced comprehension, and delivering very high quality and authentic learning experiences. All my cases are classroom and exam tested, so you know you are getting cases that work . These cases are easy to buy and easy to use: Instructor and institution licenses allow you professional use for your entire teaching career! Download one today... and teach it today! Sincerely, Paul Kurucz Author Formerly at Royal Roads University, Vancouver Island University, The Higher Colleges of Technology (UAE), and Fraser Valley University

Drinking Problems

• 1.0 Overview
• 2.0 Case Study
• 3.0 Conversation Questions

Engaging in conversation practice related to case studies about problems such as alcohol addiction can help learners to develop their communication skills, expand their vocabulary, and improve their grammar and pronunciation in the context of a specific topic.

Students can learn how to express themselves more clearly, listen actively, and respond appropriately to various scenarios involving alcohol addiction. They can also learn how to use relevant terminology, idiomatic expressions, and phrasal verbs in discussing alcohol addiction.

Steven’s Story

Steven is a 43-year-old man who has been struggling with alcohol addiction for several years. He started drinking in his early 20s as a way to socialize with his friends and alleviate stress from work. Initially, he would only drink on weekends or during special occasions, but over time, his drinking gradually increased in frequency and quantity.

After the birth of his child, Steven started drinking more heavily as a way to cope with the stress and demands of parenthood. He found it challenging to balance the responsibilities of being a new father with his job and other commitments, and he often turned to alcohol as a way to escape from his problems.

Steven’s alcohol consumption has caused significant problems in his personal and professional life. He has lost his job twice due to showing up to work drunk and has strained his relationships with his family and friends. Despite these issues, Steven has found it challenging to quit drinking. He has tried going to AA meetings, detox programs, and therapy sessions, but none of these attempts have been successful.

As Steven’s drinking continued to escalate, his relationship with his wife began to suffer. She became increasingly concerned about his behavior and the impact it was having on their family. They argued frequently, and his wife threatened to leave him if he didn’t quit drinking.

If Steven fails to quit drinking, it is likely that his relationship with his wife will deteriorate further. She may lose patience with his behavior and decide to leave him, which would have significant emotional and financial consequences for their family. Steven knows that he needs to quit drinking for the sake of his marriage and his family, but he is struggling to find the strength and support he needs to overcome his addiction.

Conversation Questions

• How do you think Steve's alcohol addiction started?
• What different methods has Steve tried to quit drinking, and why do you think they were unsuccessful?
• How do you think Steve's relationship with his wife has been affected by his alcohol addiction?
• What advice would you give to Steve to help him overcome his addiction?
• What steps can society take to better support individuals struggling with alcohol addiction?
• How can we raise awareness about the dangers of alcohol addiction and the importance of seeking help?
• In your opinion, is it possible for someone with an alcohol addiction to fully recover and live a sober life? Why or why not?
• What role do you think family and friends can play in supporting someone struggling with alcohol addiction?
• In your opinion, what are some common misconceptions people have about alcohol addiction?
• What are some ways to prevent alcohol addiction from becoming a problem in the first place?

How to Write a Case Study – The Best Step by Step Guide

What is a case study.

A case study is an in-depth analysis of a problem that you should analyze thoroughly to find the best solution. A case study is very related to a short story. It includes the main character, the problem that he faces, and how he figures out to solve the problem. But case studies are not advertisements. Neither it is about the new product coming out.

Case studies are mainly focused on the customers and their experience with the product. So, it should be an in-depth analysis of the customer’s real-life issue and how it was solved using a particular problem.

Or a case study is a form of academic writing that is used to analyze real-life situations, apply the theoretical knowledge that you gained through academic research, and draw a conclusion based on it illustrating how to respond to that situation. Moreover, you can write a case study report about a person, event, object, or place. And it is a phenomenon that you can not study only in the labs.

Structure of the Case Study Report

So, now that you have learned what you need to do before actually writing your case study report, you are good to start writing your case study report. To write a case study report that your target audience is going to read, we recommend you follow a fine structure.

Introduction

In the first part of your case study report, you should introduce the purpose of your case study report and what problem is your case study report addressing. It should be brief but descriptive enough to help your reader understand what you should expect from your paper beforehand.

The main body of your case study report has two main parts: the description and the discussion.

Description

In this part, provide a description of the problem that you are trying to get a solution for. Besides, while writing this part, we recommend you assume that your reader has no knowledge about the problem. So, thoroughly describe what it is, how it is affecting the masses, and more.

In the above part, you give a description of the problem while in the discussion part, you have to discuss the issues based on your research and the data that you have collected so far. So, you may have to:

• draw an outline of the main problem
• how the problem can be further described through academic literature
• suggest ways to solve the problem
• lastly, evaluate the suggested solutions for that particular problem.

In the last section, paraphrase your thesis and summarize your case study report. And conclude your study by giving suggestions on how to solve the problem. Also, provide strong reasons why the solutions that you are recommending are worth the try.

Lastly, go through your case study report and look for areas that you need to fill. Besides, you should also check whether the facts and the figures are accurate. Then, take your time and double-check for grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors.

Huang, Min. "A Case Study of ESL Students' Remote Speaking Class Learning Experiences in a Canada University During the COVID-19 Pandemic." Journal of English Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics , vol. 3, no. 5, 2021, pp. 32-44, doi: 10.32996/jeltal.2021.3.5.4 .

Download citation file:

The COVID-19 pandemic forced a transfer from face-to-face (F2F) learning to remote online learning in universities worldwide. A university in southern Ontario delivered English courses to language learners living globally. This study, adopting a photo-production visual method, explored four English as a second language (ESL) students' perceptions of this online learning compared to typical F2F learning and investigated activities enabling speaking opportunities and students' expectations for online learning. The results showed that students perceived minor differences between online learning and F2F learning, including a non-academic English environment, a sense of community, and instant communications. The learning process involved interactive and collaborative discussions and presentations that allow students' speaking opportunities. The online discussions contributed to students' confidence but lacked adequate feedback towards students' speaking skills. Students expected more types of learning activities that contribute to collaborations among peers, a sense of belonging to the online community, and examination orientated English skills.

ESL case study

ParagraphAI enhances English learning for ESL students through AI-driven writing assistance, offering tools for improving grammar, style, and communication confidence.

ESL English learners use ParagraphAI to improve their writing.

English as a second language, or ESL, is a program designed to help those, whose primary language is not English, learn English as an additional language with coursework framed around improving English speaking, reading, listening, and writing skills.

The importance of learning English and how ParagraphAI’s AI writing tool can help.

English is the most-spoken language in the world, with over 753,000,000 individuals being non-native English speakers. Learning English is almost vital because knowing English means that one can communicate with the entire world.

A majority of international businesses operate in English. Subsequently, those who understand English are able to enjoy greater business and career advancement opportunities. This is also true of international universities. Knowing English allows young students to explore educational pursuits anywhere in the world.

There are also more personal reasons to learn English, such as being able to communicate with a wider audience, including being able to talk to English speaking relatives, enjoying the large library of English online content, or being able to comfortably travel to and navigate an English speaking country.

Whatever the reason may be, English is a catalyst to new opportunities and absolutely worth pursuing as the language continues to grow globally.

ParagraphAI (your go-to English AI writer) uses a complex artificial intelligence-based text generator software, known as GPT-3, to produce human-like content of any length and tone. For English speakers of any degree, an AI writing app like ParagraphAI is absolutely a must. This is because it revolves around providing clear, concise English communication. Think of ParagraphAI as a spellcheck-like tool: a kind mentor that helps boost the efficacy of written communication.

With the assistance of our free English AI writer tool ParagraphAI, ESL English learners are able to quickly assess their writing and see where they can make improvements in order to increase their proficiency in English.

Here's how ParagraphAI can benefit ESL English learners.

AI-driven writing assistants are a fantastic tool for ESL English students of any age. This is because English AI writers can provide a few different, but all equally important, solutions. Here are a few ways our free AI writing solution, ParagraphAI, helps the ESL community:

1. Exposure learning.

Immersion is a popular way to learn any language, but reading the same, basic sentences over and over again is obviously not ideal. English AI writers instantly produce high quality content of any length, topic, or tone. ESL English learners can get a gist of the composition of a reply email, which words are more assertive and which ones are friendlier, and get a general idea of sentence and paragraph structures, all 100% free through ParagraphAI.

2. Being part of the conversation - without insecurities.

ESL English learners can also use ParagraphAI to create accurately and appropriately written content. They can comment on social media posts, write emails faster, compose essays, and do what any native English speaker can do: create with confidence.English AI writers create content that is already written without any grammar or spelling errors, but ParagraphAI takes inflection into account. ESL learners can offer a specific prompt and customize the tone of the piece for flawless written content that encourages them to be part of the English speaking world.

ESL English learners can benefit from paragraphAI: here’s how.

ParagraphAI has a robust suite of completely free tools ESL learners can use to get ahead in the workplace, the classroom, or just for fun. However, not too many AI writers house as many tools as ParagraphAI. There are individual content creation solutions, text and email reply AI writers, and separate grammar checking software, but the ParagraphAI team felt a proper English AI writer should be able to tackle all the problems surrounding English communication.

Here are a few staple ParagraphAI features that ESL learners can use in conjunction with an ESL program to ensure confident communication.

1. Diverse content writing.

ESL learners can use ParagraphAI to create stellar paragraphs for essays or draft the perfect resume. This feature is perfect for ESL learners who know what they want to write, but they are not quite sure how. ParagraphAI offers quick and effective written ideation to inspire those who may know English very well or offer flawlessly written content for those still starting out.

2. Instant replies.

Need to reply to a message in English? Users paste any message they receive into ParagraphAI’s “Reply” tool, signify the desired tone of their desired reply, and ParagraphAI will instantly create a customized response that matches the user’s inflection. This is definitely perfect for any instant online communication through social media direct messaging, WhatsApp texting, or even replying to emails from a recruiter.

3. Improving existing text.

If the content already exists and the user only needs an extra pair of eyes to look it over for grammar, spelling, or tonal mistakes, ParagraphAI is here to help! Through the “Improve” tab, users can ensure their written work has the correct grammar and tone and even receive an analysis of the current tone of a written piece. This is extremely advantageous for ESL students that often worry about coming off the wrong way or are concerned about English’s complex grammar rules.

Success stories:

In fact, thousands of ParagraphAI users come from nations where English is not the region’s primary language. These ESL ParagraphAI users range from emerging professionals striving to expand their career opportunities to students looking to explore English speaking cultures through travel or even higher education.

It is a great pleasure to be able to share the following testimonials from a few ESL ParagraphAI users:

"A must for any professional with a lot of writing to do! accurate and easy to read outcomes, fantastic multi-language support!  The extension is easy to navigate and use. I use it everyday!" -Eyas K, Senior Product Manager at Jellysmack

“I love ParagraphAI! It's a fantastic tool for improving your writing. It's helped me to improve my grammar and to make my writing more concise. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their writing skills.” -Adrian P, Student at the University of Vienna

"ParagraphAI is the best AI-powered writing assistant available on the Google Chrome store! It makes writing a breeze, whether you're composing an email, drafting a report, or working on a novel. ParagraphAI is incredibly user-friendly, and it's also very affordable. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their writing skills!" -Illayda B, Administrator at School Board

It is always encouraging to hear positive feedback from ParagraphAI users, but it is a rare opportunity as an AI writing software to provide such a positive impact on non-native English speakers.

ParagraphAI is extremely proud to support all English as a second language learners at each stage of their ESL journeys. Learning a new language, especially English, is a challenging but rewarding experience. ParagraphAI can expand upon provided prompts, expose ESL learners to tone and inflection, and improve current writing samples to ensure ESL learners feel confident in their ability to write in English.

Although they can enjoy one of the best AI tools for content writing for free, there is a daily limit to the amount of content users can create. With a focus on accessibility, ParagraphAI offers affordable plans for unlimited content creation. In other words, there is no limit to how many rewrites, created content, or instant replies users can enjoy through ParagraphAI.

ESL learners will be glad to see that ParagraphAI offers an extremely affordable plan for students. For only $10/month, students can enjoy having unlimited access to ParagraphAI’s writing assistant sidekick.
