I wish we could make this course "required" for anyone who works with ELLs. Or everyone, for that matter. I love the idea of encouraging teachers to learn different languages as a part of their professional development. That would set a great tone for welcoming newer Americans and their families.
This course has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by ELLs as well as strategies to help me in the future. I have very few ELLs in my school and have had very few in my experience, but I feel better equipped to help any ELLs I have in my career. I gained the understanding that my school is woefully equipped for ELLs with the understanding that we have very few.
This course has strengthened the knowledge I have regarding English language learners in the school environment. It also encouraged me to try different techniques and implement new strategies in and outside of the classroom. I am very glad that I chose to sign up for this course prior to September. I will have four students that are English language learners in September and I am looking forward to meeting them due to the knowledge I gained from this course. I truly enjoyed this course. I enjoyed taking it over the summer.
I like the course contents because they are mixed with old practices and new practices.
This class has strengthened my insight on the how second languages are acquired. I found that the Language Experience Approach seems to be helpful in helping in the classrooms with the diverse student population.
This course has strengthened my understanding, skills, and knowledge working with ELLs.
