The language used didn't relate to the student's previous work. Later I found out the student associated with native English speakers that assisted (or did) her assignments. How should I deal with this? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) The student clearly is not confident in her English capabilities but wants to succeed in school. So, I would sit the girl down and tell her I admire her desire to be successful but also let her know that she will truly feel accomplished completing the work individually. I would work with her schedule and offer extra tutoring. I would address the students who did the work for the ESOL student as well. I would let them know that their effort was kind, but up to truly support their classmate, they can help clarify work but not complete it for her.
