Understand and digitize school operations with Teachmint and its features like the attendance management system for efficient school management.

There are several ways to teach LEP students like you should increase your great teachers’ knowledge, simplify your language and not the content or questions, tell the lesson’s objectives and activities, write legibly, demonstrate, make use of all senses, use videos, films, and audio cassettes with books, bring realia into the lessons, and many more. Students who do not speak English as their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, speak, write, or understand English can be considered Limited English proficient. It happens many times when a student takes admission in a new school and they are not able to adjust properly because they do not understand English that well because they were taught in just their native language or English and native both in the previous school.

 So these students need some special attention from the teachers as they do not understand English that well when compared to other students who have been studying in that school for many years. Teachers can give some extra time to them after the class and clear their doubts.
