My name is Mrs. Regina Smith, and I am a Master's student in the Department of Foreign Language Education at the University of Texas at Austin. I have taught secondary social studies for 3 years and have informally taught ESL to adults for 2 years. My passion for teaching and learning about other cultures and languages has blossomed in the past several years, and I am looking forward to teaching English Language Learners in the high school setting.
With the changing demographics in the United States, our role as ESL teachers is constantly changing and growing. This blog is meant to provide other high school ESL teachers with ideas and suggestions for teaching our students, particularly about how to integrate reading, writing, speaking, and listening into our lessons. This is a place to share experiences and find new resources for your classroom, so please share what you have found useful from this site or from your own experiences in the secondary setting. This will help ESL teachers new and old to keep up-to-date on activities, methodologies, and issues in this field.
I'm here as your follower. Do you remember the moments of "peer pressure"? I'm just kidding... I thought we could help each other for ESL resources. :)
