Returning to Bilingualism in Schools

April 17, 2018 by Emilee McCubbins

I just rediscovered an old favorite slam poem of mine about teaching English to students as a second language in schools. It highlights a lot of the frustration and power imbalances that comes along with teaching a student content they don’t even know in their own language, much less another. I highly recommend taking the three minutes to listen to it; Dylan Garity is a fantastic poet.
