Abstract
It describes the development and adaptation processes of instructional materials for 14-16-year-old learners of English as a Foreign Language in Almalyk, Uzbekistan. The paper is focused on the descriptive characteristics of the learners, the analysis of their educational needs, and a portfolio presenting the modified materials that attempt to make classes more engaging, culturally relevant, and technologically integrated. In these materials, reflections upon changes made and how they now align with current theories in TESOL materials development are discussed in great detail with a focus on learner-centered approaches.
