Our work gets results.

The English Learner Group’s methods and strategies have been proven to yield significant growth in student development and achievement.

Research-backed Effectiveness

In 2020, a doctoral research study was completed by Dr. Lauren Lemons-Odell at California State University, Fresno. Entitled High Yield Professional Development: A Case Study Examining Job Embedded Professional Development for Teachers of Emergent Bilinguals, the dissertation provided an analysis and examination of the efficacy of The English Learner Group’s work, highlighting what we have done specifically with our clients districts and schools.

The takeaway: our work gets results.

Addressing EL student outcomes head-on

An additional research study was completed in 2018 by doctoral candidates at California State University, Channel Islands, and California State University, Fresno, assessing the effectiveness of The English Learner Group’s work in directly improving the performance and achievement of English Learners in client schools and districts.

Principles we implement in our work

  • Professional development is embedded within the teacher’s learning in a day-to-day context of their own classroom.

  • It is subject-content focused.

  • The focus is on student learning.

  • It has active participation by all involved.

  • It is aligned and coherent with a district and site mission, vision, direction.

  • It is collaborative and collective in nature.

  • It is ongoing and sustainable.

All of the above elements are integral aspects of The English Learner Group’s daily work in service to our client districts.

Our focus is providing top-quality services to empower administrators and teachers with the tools they need to accelerate English Learner academic and linguistic achievement. Let’s make that happen.

Thank you for making learning so much fun! I aspire to make learning as engaging as you did. This class has helped me process all of the valuable information and connect it to my practice. I feel better equipped to support my EL students.
