Lucyshyn, L / Teaching Philosophy

My philosophy for teaching beginner ELLs encompasses the four modalities of speaking, reading, writing, and listening. I believe that every beginner ELL needs to be taught in an environment where they will have multiple opportunities to engage with the English language with an emphasis on academic language.
