Course Description

One of the essential components of almost every student’s success in school is a supportive and engaged parent. This is especially true for TESOL students as they are dealing with the challenge of learning the curriculum in another language. In this class, we will present a 5-step program to provide teachers with the knowledge and tools to help the parents of TESOL students to become the supportive and encouraging parent that their student needs to succeed.

Note: Participants with limited to no contact with ESL students can discuss their research and strategies with accessible classroom teachers.  Information will be shared to encourage best teaching practice and professional growth.
