ESOL students are usually mainstreamed into classrooms so they can be emerged in the English language but this doesn't seem fair to the student or the teacher. You may just need to utilize Google Translate until you can get with the special education department in your school and see if you can find a translator. |

I think you welcome the student and, if possible (though probably unlikely) sit them with another Korean speaking student. At your first break, request some additional information to gauge the students level of understanding. From there you're going to have to modify your teaching to meet the student's needs. Use visuals, translation tools, and small group work to help the child acclimate to your class. |

I like this solution! This is what I would do in a situation with a student who doesn't speak English. |

I would definitely try to help the student feel comfortable. At first use google translate to communicate with the student. Find guides that would help the student understand what is going on. I know visuals work great, because they are pretty universal. I would try to contact administration and ask for guidance on what you should do. It is unfair to just leave a student in your classroom without any guidance on what to do. |

I Would try to make the student feel as comfortable as they can, as it is a new classroom, while using google translate to communicate with the child, until the proper resources can be found to best help the student. I would also try to communicate with the parents about their child's transition to a new school, and the resources that are available for them as well, |

You should definitely begin by making the student feel welcomed into the classroom. They are probably anxious about being in a classroom and school where they don't know the language. Google Translate would be extremely helpful to start communicating with them. As soon as you have the opportunity, try to gather more information on the student in order to understand where to start with teaching them. |

It is important to make sure the student feels welcome from the start. You could begin by introducing your self and students to the new student. Maybe add in fun facts to spice things up. Also, make sure to learn more about the student. If they speak little english, you could do some research and find ways to show representation in your classroom. Children's books are a great way to have children represented! |

I would do this in my classroom! I find books to be really important so your tip about using children's book was very helpful. |

I would try to use the technology I have available to me such as google translate to communicate with my new student in between the lesson to better gage what the student needs and abilities are. |

I would introduce the student to the class for a faster motion of any understanding diversity in the class. Schools in many asian schools such as Japan and Korea are very different from classroom management to teaching ethics in general. With the help of assisted technology such as audio books I would try to introduce the culture and schooling between the two. |
