This course explores effective methods for teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) and multilingual learners (MLs). Through a combination of theoretical study, practical application, and real-world engagement, students will develop the skills and knowledge necessary to design and implement effective language teaching strategies. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the needs of diverse learners, designing culturally and linguistically responsive instruction, and integrating technology into language teaching practices. Students will be required to observe and teach a lesson within a classroom that specifically includes English Learners and/or Multilingual Learners. A 20-hour field experience in an ESL/Bilingual setting is included.
