Remedial ELL
Description
English Language Learners face challenges in all subjects, due to their unfamiliarity with English alphabet, grammar, and vocabulary.
Remediation courses improve skills in specific areas – such as vocabulary, sentence structure, and idioms – to advance learners to the appropriate curriculum level for credit bearing course readiness. Each course consists of a series of assessments and prescribes curriculum based on each assessment to determine the level a student needs to reach and help guide and support them to success.
Interesting reading selections, audio read aloud, games, and a built-in incentive program encourage students to persevere and enjoy their learning process.
