It’s free to join!
The EAL (English as Additional Language) community (also known as ELL) invites experienced practitioners, those who are learning the ropes of EAL teaching, and EAL leaders within an international school to join. The intention of our community is to share our experiences, pose questions, and be supportive of others as we continue to learn and improve our practices and respective programs. As a member of this community, you have access to shared resources, can contribute your ideas, and learn from other dedicated educators on various topics related to English language learning and program development. Likely topics of discussion may include differentiated instruction, effective co-planning & co-teaching, using data to inform teaching and learning, technology in language teaching, and more! Through our discussion and sharing of resources, EAL community members will develop a sense of trust and belonging amongst colleagues within our network.
