ESL self-contained: Focuses on the students development of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, and writing in English by using instructional secondary language acquisition strategies. Used more at the elementary level, a student will have an ESL teacher that they spend most of the day with, and sometimes it is a group of students with this teacher.

ESL team teaching: focuses on the development of English skills or academic subjects through the use of sheltered instructional strategies. This program is for the upper elementary level and it is where one or more certified ESL teachers teach. Each teacher is assigned a different content and/or language art.

Structured English immersion: Focuses on the development of academic subjects. This is where there is a separate classroom for just English language learners; every topic is taught to them in English with a few explanations in the student's native language. There is no specific ESL instruction; training can be provided by multiple certified ESL teachers.
