My Project

The earbuds that I am requesting are for my newcomer students. We currently have about 25 newcomers. Some of my newcomers have never been in school before and by providing these earbuds they will be able to orally listen to the classroom teacher and understand what is being said.

As an English Language Learner, language barriers can be a significant obstacle to academic success.

With these translated earbuds, my students will be able to receive a more immersive learning experience and make significant progress in their language development. This will help them become confident and successful communicators, both in the classroom and beyond. In short, the translated earbuds will make a huge difference in my students' learning and help them reach their full potential. They will provide my students with a level of accessibility and support that will enhance their education and set them up for success in the future. I am excited to see the impact that these earbuds will have on my students' learning outcomes, and I thank you in advance for your support.
