Welcome to our ESOL Education Program!
We hope that you will find many helpful resources, whether you are a student in one of our infused programs, a faculty member searching for answers to policy and procedures questions, or a visitor from another institution seeking support for infusing ESOL into your program.
| "In The Qualities of Effective Teachers, James Stronge (2002) summarizes their three overarching characteristics: they recognize complexity; they communicate clearly, and they serve conscientiously" (p. 62). As an effective teacher, one of the essential ingredients of dealing with complexity is to be able to meet the educational needs of all students, particularly the increasing numbers of students with limited English proficiency and immigrants with a wide variety of school preparation."

"The College of Education faculty are committed to preparing highly qualified teachers of English language learners and have dedicated our efforts to integrating ESOL into the curriculum. In partnership with local districts, we have developed a program of infusion that emphasizes and models best practices for teaching ESOL students in K-12." Dr. Joyce Nutta, ESOL Program Coordinator |
