Challenges in Tutoring Bridging EAL Course to Year 11 Students
EAL students have limited literacy skills. They also have little or no exposure to English outside the classroom, which can make it hard for them to understand the language. They might not be familiar with the Australian culture and customs, which can make it difficult for them to adjust to a new environment.
Tutoring EAL students require a lot of patience and understanding. We help students develop listening, speaking, reading and writing skills based on their knowledge and skills in their first language.
In Bridging EAL classrooms, teachers have to deal with students that come from diverse backgrounds and are at very different stages of learning English. Online Bridging EAL tutoring programs we offer have the advantage of being able to cater to the individual needs of each student.
