Teaching Languages Today | The Key to ELL feat. Brooke Boutwell

Did you know that English Language Learners (ELLs) are one of the FASTEST growing student populations in the U.S. (U.S. Department of Education, 2019)? That is just one of the reasons we decided to create this episode, where you’ll learn what EVERY teacher and school district administrator should know, understand, and do to set their ELL students up for success. Listen in as your host Emily Sabo (linguist, PhD) chats with ESL (English as a Second Language) specialist Brooke Boutwell about the 'key' to ELL, which comes in the form of a “3-4-5.” That is, Brooke answers 3 FAQs about ELLs, outlines 4 federal U.S. laws that impact ELL programs, and reveals her 5 go-to techniques for content area teachers struggling to engage their ELL students.

Teaching languages today is as exciting as it is challenging! That’s why we here at Mango Languages created “Teaching Languages Today”, a conversational podcast for world language educators that gets to the bottom of what’s working – and what’s not. Listen in for the problems fellow teachers are facing, learn what solutions they’ve found – and get some much-needed self-care reminders of why you fell in love with language teaching to begin with. Your host for the show is language teacher and linguistics researcher Emily Sabo (PhD). In each episode, we’ll learn to see World Language Ed through a new lens, by sitting down with an all-star lineup of teachers, administrators, and students. It’s our hope that the stories you hear in “Teaching Languages Today” will get you thinking – and feeling – differently about what you do in the classroom.
