Where has the myth come from that teaching #ESOL is easy? Is it down to backpacking TEFLers/native-speakerism? Mountains of paperwork, mixed levels, pre-entry literacy, trauma, culture shock etc etc. It’s an amazing job but definitely not easy

Don’t assume all ELs speak another language. Some may hear another language at home but not speak it themselves. Every EL is unique & their literacy in the primary language will vary. Find out about each student individually. #ESL #ELL #ELLchat #teachingELs
