About the Book

A teacher's view of education in America. A tool for new teachers and students enrolled in teacher credentialing programs in the United States. A resource book for parents and officials, interested in the impact that English as Second Language students has on our educational system. When researching for this book I realized how in many ways we were more enlightened in the 1600's and 1700's than we are today. During our early years as a nation we embraced and accepted the use of primary languages as a natural phenomenon. Our changes in policy and action have left millions of students in negative learning environments. The political influences on Education are egregious and have created a class of second class learners and citizens. Not only is it morally and ethically wrong, it does not let our country use the entire pool of bright, intelligent and powerful minds to their fullest.
