In most K-12 educational settings, English learners spend only part of their day with their English teacher but spend many hours with grade-level or content teachers. Paraeducators can take on a variety of roles, such as teacher, translator, interpreter, counselor, and student advocate. This Quick Guide is designed as an easily referenceable professional development tool to help paraeducators stay current with ELT best practices and support them in their critical role supporting English learners.

The book highlights important aspects of second language learning to help teachers create beneficial conditions for productive English language development. Further, it presents a valuable overview of challenges that adult learners face and offers potential solutions to obstacles that affect their acquisition of English. Sample tools (e.g., charts, techniques, activities) are ready to use in the adult English language classroom.
