Novice teachers can apply best practices for a successful ELL classroom experience!
New teachers face a special challenge when their first assignment is teaching English language learners. This resource combines teacher induction and mentoring principles with basic ESL and EFL techniques to enhance reading, writing, speaking, listening, and grammar instruction. More than 100 exploratory breaks provide topics for reflective discussion with mentors and supervisors. Each chapter offers novice teachers supportive strategies for:
Using different models of lesson planning
Monitoring behavior and classroom interaction
Assessing students for placement in ESL or general education classes
Reflecting and exploring the development of their own teaching practice
