For teachers and tutors of English Language Learners (ELLs) or Adult Basic Education (ABE), the Minnesota Literacy Council (MLC) offers suggestions for resources and activities through their regularly-updated Tutor Tips blog. While designed specifically for adult learners, many of these activities could also be adapted for certain K-12 classrooms. Each tutor tip includes a purpose, information about preparation time, materials needed, and detailed procedures. Some tips also include suggestions of how to adapt each activity for students with different language levels. Educators can browse past tutor tips by category including beginning ESL, GED, speaking and listening, and vocabulary. In addition, teachers can also sign up to receive tutor tips via email or by an RSS Feed.
