“In this urban call to action, Alexandra Guilamo transforms aspiration into action. If we wish to unleash the potential of every student, we must commit to understanding them before asking them to understand us. This is not merely a matter of language, Guilamo argues, but of culture. The practical guidelines in this book will help coaches, teachers, and administrators improve not only the quality of instruction but also the climate of respect and safety bilingual and dual-language students and teachers deserve.”
“Alexandra Guilamo’s new book, Coaching Teachers in Bilingual and Dual-Language Classrooms, changes the game for educators who are charged to serve language learners in US classrooms.
