My Students

I am an ESOL teacher located at two different schools. My students come from nine different countries and bring many different experiences and cultures into my classroom. Their ages range from PreK - 8th grade and are at all different levels of English language development. They are full of passion and excitement to learn!

I strive to make my classroom a welcoming environment with an exciting curriculum for my students.

There are few English language learners at my schools, which can often make them feel like they are not included and act as a barrier to assimilating into their communities. I try to create an inclusive and open environment in my classroom to support these students and motivate them to work hard at acquiring essential English language skills.

My Project

Help my students build a strong foundation of English through a flexible, welcoming classroom. I need just a few supplies to finish up my flexible-seating style classroom. I try to keep my classroom as collaborative and comfortable as possible; meaning that I give students the choice to sit wherever they would like. Whether it's on a pillow, the rug, a workstation, or a teacher desk, they are able to choose where they will be the most focused. My students are able to engage in learning in their own unique ways. Through adding a few pillows, some timers, and portable student work bags, these stations should be complete!
