Quality Teaching for English Learners (QTEL) Institutes: Literacy, Math

Approximately 4.5 million English learners are enrolled in the nation's public schools. Over 40% of public school teachers have English learners in their classrooms, but only 12.5% have had eight or more hours of professional development focused on teaching these students. With few exceptions, teacher preparation and professional development programs have not kept pace with the growing linguistic challenge. And yet, it is teachers who play the most crucial role in the success or failure of their students.
