Reviews

“Through contributions by renowned experts in the field of TESOL, this text adeptly highlights the experiences of ‘New Destination’ ELs/MLs in schools-juxtaposed with key concepts such as education policy, demographic changes, classroom contexts and school-based practices. What makes this book so useful is the inclusion of current literature, historical background, and up to date demographics that provide useful insight on policy and practice.” -- Holly Hansen-Thomas, Texas Woman's University
