The AESAP website would not have been possible without the direct efforts of over a hundred people:
Thanks to all the Clinical Instructors in Charlottesville and Albemarle Schools who work with the Curry preservice teachers and who responded to our survey about working with ELLs.
Thanks to the ESOL teachers who helped generate the scenarios and expert answers:
Thomas Connaughton, Renata Germino, Faye Madigan, and Sharon Webb.
Thanks to Beverly Catlin and Courtney Stewart, ESOL coordinators, for their support in countless ways.
Thanks to Brendan Downey and Jaeho Choi whose technological expertise made this possible.
