121. Enhancing ESL Education: Insights from Consortium Consultants Serving Rural School District with Guests Jessie Bloyd and Natalie Briscoe

Equipping ELLs

Instructional programs for ELLs looks different from district to district and state to state.

In this episode of Equipping ELLs, we are delving into the pivotal role of consortium consultants in bolstering ESL education in under-resourced rural areas. Hosted by Beth Vaucher, this episode features education consultants Jessie Bloyd and Natalie Briscoe as they shed light on the consortium's mission and the significance of cadres. A consortium, as explained by our guests, represents a collaborative effort among educational professionals, pooling resources and expertise to address the unique challenges faced by ESL learners in rural settings. Cadres, specialized teams within the consortium, play a vital role in offering tailored support to these under-staffed areas. Through targeted curriculum development, teacher training, and community engagement initiatives, cadres ensure that ESL education is not just accessible but also effective in school districts of all shapes and sizes. Tune in to learn how these concerted efforts are reshaping ESL education outcomes in rural school districts!
