Abstract: Every year, the number of multilingual students grows, and despite best intentions, their learning can lag behind their peers. Leadership expert Paula Polk has identified intentional and inclusive coaching practices that will help teachers empower these students at every level. "Enhancing Instruction for Multilingual Learners" is filled with tips and tools so that instructional leaders and coaches can: (1) Create a culture of partnership and communication based on core coaching beliefs; (2) Prioritize the instructional principles that best build language proficiency; (3) Implement the coaching strategies that fit the learning goal; (4) Make sure teachers include students in their own learning; (5) Guide teachers in planning content that meets students' needs; and (6) Develop teacher-centered coaching models that enhance their expertise. A shift toward equity and inclusion cannot occur in isolation. It requires partnership--between coaches, teachers, and students. Learn which motivations, mindsets, and moves will make you an agent of change and empower teachers with the skills to ensure high-quality instruction that meets multilingual students' needs.
