Inhaltsangabe

This is a story about English language learners - one in particular - and a reflection on what we, as educators, can do to promote their success.

As educators, we're faced every day with the question of how to teach the thousands of children who arrive in our schools as immigrants and refugees, coming with no English, from cultural backgrounds so different from America's.

Our work as educators is to help these children start to climb the wall that stands between their past, wherever and however that was lived, and a future in America.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Bolen Vargas' life began in a small rural hamlet in the Dominican Republic where he walked barefoot to school or, on a lucky day, rode on the back of a donkey. As a teenager without any knowledge of the English language he transitioned to the bewildering environment of New York City to join his mother. He beat the odds that his beginnings would have predicted by graduating from high school. A graduate of SUNY Brockport and from the University of Pennsylvania, GSE, he spent his entire career educating children from all walks of life. He served as Superintendent of the Rochester, NY School District and the Manchester, NH School District.
