 About Millie
Hey, I’m Millie. I create tools and curriculum for teachers who
want to teach a rigorous curriculum to ELLs.

My Adventures in ESL is a blog for educators who truly believe

that their ELLs can access a rigorous curriculum. If you be-
lieve that something is “too hard” or “they can’t do it” , then
this is not the resources for you. We should all believe that our
ELLs can achieve!

For the last six years I have been teaching 6-8th grade new-
comers and intermediate ELLs . In that time I have assisted
with writing a newcomer curriculum and piloting a newcom-
er program. I am currently teaching intermediate ELLs and
coaching ESL teachers across the district.

When I am not teaching and peer coaching, I love a good binge

watch. My favorite shows are Stranger Things, Queen Sugar,
and Wendy Williams (“How you doing?!). I am obsessed with can-
dles! I also am a planner and crafter that lives in Michael’s.

ESL? Follow me on the social media sites below!
