Welcome to my collection of resources, experiences, and advice for launching and growing a quality two-way immersion bilingual program. I am deeply committed to bilingualism and biliteracy for every child and firmly believe that this approach is key for preparing traditionally underserved English Language Learners for short and long term academic, cognitive, and sociocultural success. My personal mission as an educator is to do everything I can to close the achievement gap and to provide every student with an excellent college prep education--particularly ELLs. If you're looking to launch something similar, or simply want ideas and resources for your bilingual classroom, I want to help in any way I can!

Speaking in Tongues: Video Extras

A PBS documentary takes a closer look at immersion education across the country.  Here's a clip from a Chinese immersion program:


Inside Immersion from PatchWorks Films on Vimeo.

More video extras from the film can be found here: http://speakingintonguesfilm.info/about/video_extras/.  Fascinating!
