All Model Teaching Quick Credit Courses provide content via both video and text format for your convenience. Teachers may watch a self-paced video presentation or download and print a self-contained article of the content.

Understanding academic vocabulary is critical for all learners but is much more difficult to learn than conversational vocabulary. This course provided a great overview of the key strategies I use daily with my ELL students. Highly recommend it to any teachers new to ELL instruction!
