In a Stand-alone ENL class, students receive English language development instruction taught by a NYS-certified teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) in order to acquire the English language needed for success in core content areas.

What is stand-alone instruction?

During stand-alone instruction, ELLs leave the classroom and spend time with ENL teachers who focus on skills such as vocabulary and conceptual development. This instructional model is often used in conjunction with the collaborative setting for beginning level learners who need double service periods.

What is an ENL program?

Coursework for the ESL certification online (ENL Licensure) program emphasizes the unique needs of those for whom English is not a first language. You will gain valuable ENL experience and build a toolkit of resources for multiple teaching contexts such as push-in/pull-out and dual-language immersion.
