I know that as a former ESL student I too often felt judged and questioned by my peers. 

As educators, how can we ensure our ELL or ESL student feel confident in their already attained skills, while also supporting their learning needs to the fullest?

Though I have not read the book myself, after reading many reviews and looking more into the Toronto based author, I believe this book is a great resource to learn about Linguistically Appropriate Practice (LAP) in the classroom.
