      Review<\/strong><\/div>\n

      L. Iza<\/strong>,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>(Athens, Ga.)<\/p>\n

      I would recommend this book to all teachers who teach English language learners. It is packed with research based strategies and approaches. The marginal questions on many pages encourage the reader to reflect on the information presented and question how it could be applied to the classroom. This is a must read. I have read many books in my professional career as an ESOL teacher and program consultant but this book was so informative, I read it twice! I am recommending it to all my colleagues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
