Three Keys to Unlocking the English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS)

Adult education involves more than just teaching - it requires teachers to take on various roles, such as motivator, counselor, and more. To help teachers navigate these responsibilities with ease we have created an interactive session that focuses on three key techniques for unlocking the English Language Proficiency standards (ELPS):
1. Increasing Text Complexity,
2. Employing Evidence, and
3. Building Knowledge
This session will equip you with strategies to deal with challenges, explore ways to incorporate more engagement through evidence-based practices, and learn techniques to build your students' content area expertise. Our experienced presenters, Patsy Egan and Betsy Parrish, will share their extensive experience in teaching, developing standards, and designing professional development for adult English language learners. They will demonstrate how these three techniques can be applied to cater to your students' immediate life skills and resettlement needs.
Join us for this interactive and informative session to enhance your skills as an adult education teacher.

Thank you for making this video. One of the most frustrating issues for me, as a teacher, is that the vast majority of my students are not adults but in their late teens. Very little content and material is relevant to their lives and learning as they haven't left school yet. It would be wonderful if those in charge of creating and providing this content to take into consideration the needs of teens and early 20s studying C2 Proficiency.
