Customer Reviews
Great for pre-service teachers!
Love the clear, practical focus on crafting classroom relationships and learning experiences for MLLs. Your podcast is one of the choices my students have for eLearning as future teachers of MLLs.
False advertising
I purchased a book through a link provided by Tan by Shelley Fairbairn. At multiple points throughout the episode a manipulative (or older poster/chart) was referenced as being included with the purchase by both Tan and the authors of the book. I purchased the book and it did not come with either. As a new ML teacher, I was anticipating this easy reference chart/ manipulative. Tan’s email on his website is not functioning so no way to contact him to rectify this. The podcasts themselves are hit or miss as sometimes people don’t share much info in anticipation of you buying whatever it is they promote. That was not the issue with this episo(as I purchased the book) but am not happy that they misled us. In reading other reviews, this seems to be the norm and not the exception):
Love this podcast!
This is such a great podcast, and has really helped me to improve my practice!
