Department of Imaginary Affairs Volunteer
The Stories of Us project is currently in the process of developing a storytelling/writing curriculum that can be integrated into ESL classrooms. As a part of this process, we are working to better understand how ESL teachers are trained, how they design curriculum for their students and how that has changed over the years, and ultimately what works in the classroom, what doesn’t, and why. Over the next few weeks, we are hoping to have 30min-1hr informal phone conversations with ESL teachers who are interested in volunteering to share their experience on these topics.
