Dear friends, I would be extremely careful about making a student a teacher �s assistant. A student can not be above other students even if he or she is native English speaking. It can create problems for his interpersonal relations after your class or even at your lesson. It �s not his merit to be able to speak English. You may not agree with me, but my principle in the class is - all students are equal to me. If they work in pairs, they express themselves as much as they can. But no student can be taken as a model, even in this situation. If I were in your shoes, I would just give him a more difficult task and make him speak more ( up to his level). Good luck!

Hi! i �m not saying to take him/her as a model, just to give him thinks to do while the others are learning things he/she already knows! i don �t have a native speaker in my classes, but i �ve got 2 teaching assistants (picked out randomly) at the start of every class, and they appreciate to be more involved in the class management! i have a friend who had a native speaker last year, and this pupil had a bad behaviour in class because he was bored, when she asked him to become a teaching assistant, it changed everything! obviously the pupils have to agree, but it can be a nice way to motivate a native speaker and to integrate him to the class... but i agree, you have to be careful and consider all the possibilities before choosing what you �ll do... giving him/her harder things to do can be nice, but he/she might feel like he/she �s not belonging to the class... take care!

I would suggest writing activities. Even native speakers may not know the correct way to write, for example, formal letters, essays etc. You could also revise the tenses with him - again, he will use them correctly but he may not know what they are - I didn �t know we had a present perfect tense until I took my CELTA!

How about teaching differences btw Am En and Br En? I mean if he / she is an American he / she doesn �t know lots of words from Br Eng and vice-versa.
