  Case: Communicating with parents who have limited english proficiency
Hello there,


I will be starting my internships in a few months, and I am curious as to how I should communicate with my students' parents who have limited english proficiency. Also, how often should I communicate with them?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You should communicate with these parents as often as necessary or as often as you would all other parents. It's critical to establish your relationship with them and your student early and maintain it throughout the term so they feel included. Communicate via written or visual communication that can be translated, when appropriate. If you need to discuss a delicate or serious matter, you may want to enlist the help of a translator to ensure you're on the same page.

Comments: Yes!!! Often ELL parents feel very left out so definitely communicate with them as often as you would the other parents. You can always ask a coworker of yours or anyone you know who would be willing to help to translate for you.
