English Language Learners (ELLs) is a diverse population of students that present unique challenges to educators. English language learning requires many underlying skills and techniques. Learners have to master a number of complex linguistic, personal, cultural and social skills, and competences and be aware of effective techniques and strategies to help them cope with various challenges during the learning process.
In fact, teaching English language learners (ELL) have become such a highly specialized field, there are professionals who devote their whole careers to researching and perfecting strategies for English Language instruction. English Language Learners also face a formidable task when they attend mainstream classrooms where English is the medium of instruction. The frequent use of learning strategies can help learners to become more competent and effective language users in the classroom and inspire them to achieve higher levels of mastery in the target foreign language.
It takes multiple years for English learners to gain a high enough level of language proficiency to perform on par with their native English‐speaking peers. English learners cannot wait until they are fluent in English to learn grade‐level content. Instead, they must continue to develop their math and reading skills as well as their knowledge of social studies and science, even while learning English. This can happen through a variety of programme models.
