Working With English Language Learners
|
Working with ELLs can be challenging for content area teachers with little background in second language learning or TESOL. In addition to needing an understanding of the principles of second language acquisition, our teachers also need to be able to use the types of high yield strategies and techniques that support the learning of all students in the classroom. TESOL Trainers is your scaffold to success™ |
TESOL Trainers offers a host of solutions from targeted workshops on specific TESOL strategies such as engaging students, 7 Strategies for success, managing multi-level classrooms, Sheltered instruction, comprehension checking, and much more.
One additional way to support positive teaching practices is setting up a peer coaching initiative in your school or district. This type of program gives teachers the tools they need to inform and transform their own teaching by creating supportive, focused learning communities among the teaching staff.

TESOL Trainers can design a single workshop or a series of workshops on effective strategies that teachers can use when working with ELLs.
