English language learners (ELLs) are a growing population of schools across the United States. Teachers must do everything possible to assist these outstanding students in attaining their full academic and social potential. We’re dedicated to giving you the very best in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) knowledge and teaching strategies to help you meet the needs of your ELLs. Whether you are a new or experienced teacher or new to teaching English language learners, this website will provide valuable information for your classroom. Please reach out if you want to know more!
Remember, these ELLs are new to our country, where they do not know the dominantly used language and may be separated from their friends and family. They need understanding and assistance to navigate their new school and the larger community. Teachers are uniquely positioned to help these outstanding students integrate into our society and utilize every opportunity. With proper teacher support, English language learners can exceed all academic obstacles to accomplish all their hopes and dreams.
TESOL is a constantly changing endeavor with unique challenges, but it is gratifying and fulfilling. For this reason, I will update the latest strategies and resources to keep teachers current on the latest techniques and technology. So, do not get frustrated or stressed. Once teachers learn the best practices for teaching ELLs, both the teachers and ELLs will be happy and more successful. Remember, all teachers have the opportunity to have a meaningfully positive influence on their students; this is particularly true for teachers of ELLs. Please take advantage of all the helpful resources on this webpage.
