I had the opportunity this afternoon to participate in an ESL workshop presented by one of my friends. She is working on her masters in International Education and had to present as a part of her final project for her degree. It was an interesting opportunity to learn more about English Language Learners, since I do not have much training or experience. It was most interesting to me to think about how cultural differences can really impact student learning and learning experiences. I thought it was also interesting to see the stages of language acquisition and be able to connect several of my students into each of these language categories.
