ESL guide for the Mainstream Teacher.

Hi, everyone...Here is a link I find very informative, it is similar in content to the material in the "Big Assignment", just not as long and easier to read in a few minutes while still obtaining a lot of information about ESL and ELL. It gives information about myths and facts about acquiring a second language, which is very helpful to prevent us from taking the "wrong" steps or decisions. It also gives information about the language acquisition stages and challenges both teachers and students will most likely face. Hope you find it helpful.

Thank you, Lissette. You are right it covers much of the same material as the "big assignment" and the author is an actual teacher which confirms its usefulness.
