My First Encounter w/ My ELL Student

My first encounter with my Ell student was a rewarding experience,  I learned a lot about what she likes and dislikes, what her future goals are, why she came to the United States and she also told me about her family life including how many brothers and sisters she has who speaks fluent english already and even their ages.  She also told me a great deal about her parents and their reasons for bring the family to the states.  I found her to be very mature for her age even though she is only a 9th grader she was able to carry on a conversation with me in english very well.  she is a really sweet girl.  My meeting well exceptional well I gained so much from this.  I also understand more about working these types of students and also what types of things matter to these kids including how they feel about attending Akins.  This encounter will help to become more considerate of my ELL students and understand that they are just as interested in learning as another child who speaks english.  As a result, I as a teacher will do everything I can to enrich all of my students learning capablities.
