  Case: Motivation
I have an ESOL student in my inclusion class. He is very low academically and struggles to retain information. He is receiving assistance through our school ESOL and Migrant programs, but it is not helping. His grades are suffering badly. We took a vocabulary quiz the other day and he missed every single question. What are some things I can do to motivate him to study more? I know the language barrier for him is tough, but he is not putting forth much effort.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
There are several techniques and strategies we use at my school to help ESOL learners. This actually happened in my classroom. Have you thought about peer instruction? Maybe getting another student in your class or another student in an older grade to come help him. Setting a goal with him may help as well, something we would enjoy or like to do. Then working together to achieve that goal.
