Reading with Older English Language Learners: The Barriers and Breakthroughs (ESL Reads)
A Talk by Lauren Piovesan (Founder, ESL Reads)
About this Talk
Migration is as old as humanity itself—so why are we still struggling to provide adolescent and adult English language learners with the meaningful reading materials they deserve? That’s the question at the heart of ESL Reads. In this talk, I will share how ESL Reads’ print and digital resources support educators in teaching reading comprehension through age-appropriate, accessible stories. I will also introduce our latest phonics resource, built on the Sounds-Write Scope and Sequence designed for emergent English language learners.
