Listen "What Do Teachers Need to Know about Language and Language Acquisition?"
Episode Synopsis
Join us for this inaugural episode as we consider how all teachers are teachers of language. We would like to clarify a point in the episode about the percentage of MLLs in classrooms in the US. They represent 9 percent of the total population nationwide, not 40% as stated in the podcast.
