Get the tools and coaching you need to close the COVID-19 achievement gap for ELs no matter when, where or how students are learning. ELL Made Simple offers high quality, high impact, professional development and coaching for administrators and teachers. Teachers learn to engage ELs while increasing academic achievement and increasing language acquisition.
Even before the pandemic, many students learning English struggled to participate on equal terms in the classroom as they confronted the dual challenge of mastering grade-level content while continuing to learn English. For many English learners, the abrupt shift to learning from home amid the challenges of the pandemic has made that struggle even harder. One school system reported that the rate of low and failing grades among English learners had jumped by 34%—to nearly half of all grades English learners earned.
