  Case: Lonely Student
One of the ESOL students in my class has no friends and does not talk to anyone socially, other than when directed for school work. How can I help this student make friends?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Try doing a long term group assignment in which students work together in and out of class to collaborate on a project. He may open up with the students he is in a group with since the setting is smaller than in the full classroom

Comments: I like this solution the most! It's both educational and also requires lots of contact with other students, which could lead to friendships since they're in constant communication. It also may lower the anxiety the student might feel since the group is small.
