What Members Are Saying...

I have been teaching for many years, but this is only my 2nd year working with elementary ELL students. Equipping ELLs helped me figure out what to teach my intermediate and emerging students. Now my life looks more organized and I feel more confident teaching younger ELL kids! I have really enjoyed every session/PD I have attended. It's nice to know other ELL teachers in different states struggle too and to learn from them on what is working. I'm so glad to be a part of your ELL community.

Dawn Weber, Elementary Teacher

"As a first year ELL teacher, I have felt like you were there 'holding my hand' along the way as I navigated these waters for the first time. Your lessons provide structure and order to a program that my district is lacking. I have raved about you to fellow teachers and used your material when my principal does observations. Thank you for making me look good!"

Jennifer Houghton, ELL Teacher 

I only found Equipping ELLs a couple of months ago, and I cannot imagine being without it at this point. My school does not provide ANY curriculum resources for our ELL department, and as a new ELL teacher, I was lost. Now I feel like I have a place to start and an idea of what I should be teaching. Before I was looking at the WIDA Can-Do descriptors, my curriculum maps for grades K-5, and just winging it based on what I knew about my student's needs. Now I have a reliable set of resources and I am adequately teaching all of the domains. I love knowing that I'm not alone and have a place to get help.

Cyndi Miller,  Elementary ELL Teacher

What Makes Equipping ELLs different from other ELL Curriculum? 

Each resource and training we develop is crafted with these four essential skills in mind.

1. Designed to Address the Diverse Language Needs of ELLs

At the heart of our mission, we meticulously crafted all of our resources to meet the specific needs of ELLs. Recognizing the complexity and diversity of ELL backgrounds, our curriculum is tailored to support varying proficiency levels and cultural contexts, ensuring that each student receives the personalized instruction they need to succeed.

Our materials are purpose-built for multilingual students, rather than adapted from monolingual resources with supplementary supports. This ensures that every lesson is fully integrated with language development strategies, cultural relevance, and scaffolded learning experiences. 

2. Resources Designed for Flexible Scheduling

We understand the demands of managing multiple groups and varying language proficiency levels each week. A rigid, scripted curriculum simply isn't practical for your dynamic classroom environment.

Our resources are crafted with flexibility in mind, allowing you to easily print and teach, whether you have a group of newcomers for one hour a day or a group of developing fourth graders for thirty minutes a week. This adaptability ensures that you can effectively address the diverse needs of your students without being constrained by a one-size-fits-all approach.

 

 

3. Promotes Consistency for You & Your Students

Our resources are designed to establish a consistent learning environment. As students become familiar with the Equipping ELLs materials, their engagement increases, and their affective filter decreases, fostering a more conducive learning atmosphere.

Additionally, you will spend significantly less time on preparation, as our resources can be seamlessly integrated into your weekly plans. This consistency enhances student learning and helps you feel completely prepared and confident in your teaching.

4. Boosts Confidence in Your ELLs

The language learning journey is all about building confidence and celebrating small victories.

By utilizing Equipping ELLs resources tailored to the appropriate language levels of your students, you enable them to engage in activities they can successfully complete.

This targeted approach helps your ELLs gain confidence in their abilities, fostering a positive and motivating learning experience.

 

Join now and empower yourself to unlock the full potential of every student.

 

Don't just teach—inspire with Equipping ELLs by your side!

The clear guides and community support have made the job of teachers easier and allowed them time to get to know their students while meeting their educational needs.

We highly recommend Equipping ELLs to fellow teachers—it’s like having a supportive colleague right at your fingertips!"

Take the Equipping ELLs 30-Day Challenge today.

YES I AM READY TO TAKE THE CHALLENGE!

That's why we created Equipping ELLs!

 

As an ESL certified homeroom teacher, I've taught in a low-income public school in Chicago and a private IB school in Panama. With years of experience and an M.Ed in ESL and Curriculum and Instruction, I pour my knowledge into every resource I create. My personal experience as a second-language learner living abroad helps me develop materials that make students feel welcomed and safe as they learn a new language.

But I'm not doing this alone. Equipping ELLs is backed by a dedicated team of former teachers who bring their own rich experiences to the table. Our team understands the challenges you face because they've been there too. We collaborate to ensure that every resource is engaging, supportive, and empowering. In Equipping ELLs, you'll find not just resources, but a community that cheers you on through the tough environment of teaching.

 

 

 

You really have two choices this year:

Join Equipping ELLs and imagine yourself feeling confident, prepared, and connected.

With more time for your personal life and less stress, you can focus on what you do best: teaching and inspiring your students.

Or, without the right resources and support, you'll spend hours Googling for materials to use, feel constantly overwhelmed, and struggle with meeting the diverse needs of your students.

Choose the path that ensures a prepared and confident teacher.
