ESOL < Back ESOL Courses Offered ESOL stands for English for Speakers of Other Languages. In other schools, it is known as ELL, ESL, or ELD. Programs like these exist to support students who are learning English as a second, third, or fourth language. Best practices in the field of language learning view ESOL through the lens of asset-based partnership between learners of diverse backgrounds and proficiency levels. More Information ESOL programs were first created in the 1970s. Hispanic and Asian Americans, especially those learning English, were not fully included in schools. Many times, they received lessons they couldn’t understand or lessons that were less important for their future. Civil Rights protests, like the East L.A. Walkouts in 1968, forced schools to change. Today, students who are learning English as a second, third, or fourth language have new rights. York Tech’s ESOL Program works hard to fulfill and protect those rights.

Through studying various forms of literary and non-literary sources, students will develop critical thinking skills and apply them to everyday conversations and situations.

English 12 (103) [NCAA] 1.0 credit, Grade 12, Weight 1.0 Critical thinking skills developed in earlier levels of secondary English will be built upon during English 12 via critical language skills. As students prepare to transition into life outside of the classroom, they must be well-equipped to interact confidently with a variety of texts, a diverse population of people, and an evolving sense of self. Throughout the course students will work to cultivate growth mindsets and problem solve by developing their communication and thinking skills through reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Students will be asked to analyze their methods of thinking and evaluate their biases as a way to create a more capable framework for problem solving while also working to develop the necessary "soft" skills required for collaborating and cooperating with others.
