  Case: Non speaking ESOL Student
I teach a kindergarten ESOL student in an Early Intervention Program math classroom. He comprehends English but appears to be a selective mute. He has only spoken a few words to me since the beginning of the year, yet he can follow all verbal directions given in English. What is the best way to increase his speech in the classroom?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that one possible solution could be making the teaching lessons related to something that he likes maybe a specific sport or cars.
