I am teacher in a high needs school in Brooklyn, New York. The students that I teach are full of energy, questions, and potential. About 1/3 of them are English language learners and the biggest challenge I face when teaching them is access to appropriate material. Make a difference in their lives by giving them the gift of knowledge.
