American Public Schools

Dr. Dormer has provided many professional development services for American public schools on meeting the needs of English learners (ELs). As the author of What School Leaders Need to Know about English Learners (TESOL Press), she is qualified to speak to both school leaders and teachers. Some of the topics that Jan regularly speaks on include:

  • Teaching language and content: Equipping all teachers to meet the needs of ELs.
  • Embracing multiple languages and cultures in your school.
  • Providing effective feedback for ELs.
  • Meeting the needs of newcomer ELs.
  • Transforming your school for ELs by using What School Leaders Need to Know about English Learners (TESOL Press) as a book study.
  • Effective methods for ELs.
  • Equipping ESL teachers to work with mainstream teachers in meeting the needs of ELs.

Dr. Dormer speaks both in person and virtually and would love to serve your school!
