Best teaching resources for ELLs beginners and newcomers?!!! I only have one hour each day with each group. What have you found to help them the most and align with general education language arts?

I’m a HS Spanish teacher, but I work with any ELL students that come to my district. I use the TPRS, Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling, curriculum with both my Spanish students and new ELL students. It’s conversation based, and you use the most common verbs in the language to create and memorize stories. Many ELL and foreign language students are afraid to make mistakes when communicating. Since the curriculum is all conversational the students overcome that lack of confidence pretty quickly. The socio-emotional need to communicate and make friends should take precedence with new ELL students in my opinion. They’ll learn more and faster if they’re able to make English speaking friends to practice the language with.

I recently interviewed for a really well known, mature tech company that’s revered for its great culture. I was at the last round, after over a month of communication, interviews and challenges. I couldn’t even count hours I’d already put in. Then they ghosted me. It ruined my interest in the role anyway, but I’m still extremely disappointed with how they treated me. Is there a way to give them that feedback? And is it even worth it anyway?
