  Case: Language Barrier
I'm very nervous about the next upcoming year. I try to help my students as best I can, but I'm concerned about getting an ESOL student with an uncommon language. Here in Florida, there are usually many Spanish speaking ESOL students, and usually staff who also speak Spanish, but I'm worried about any potential students who speak, say, Russian, or Finnish, or a language that is not common to this area. What are some suggestions you have?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try to have various visuals for the students to see around the classroom in various languages, so that they could relate the object to a word.
