  Case: What is your interpretation?
I have a student who has recently learned English, and still struggles to say some of the basic words we say. He has now started getting embarrassed and will not speak up in class because he is embarrassed about the way he talks. How can I help him feel comfortable talking in class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
What a great and fun opportunity for your whole class! Start integrating into your lesson plans songs, games and other activities from the child's culture. This will allow the student to feel safe within his environment.

Comments: Songs and games are a great way to bring the new English-learner out of his shell and start communicating with his fellow classmates. I think games and songs that help promote English learning would also be great.

Comments: I feel that this solution would be so much fun to the students when the songs and games are integrated into the class. The child could even speak about their culture if they feel up to it for a presentation once he feels comfortable. But I think the integrated lesson plans might help the child speak even more and even about their culture, I really like that idea.

Comments: I would have concern that the child would feel like I was calling him out, due to suddenly practicing songs from his culture. I would speak to him and gauge his comfort with that first before possibly drawing more attention.
