Hangzhou International School warmly embraces students who speak English as a second or other language. We are dedicated to supporting these learners through our comprehensive English for Speakers of Other Languages ESOL program, designed to facilitate rapid English proficiency acquisition.

For high school students grades 9-12, we anticipate fluency in English and the capability to access academic content. Regardless of their ESOL level, every student is placed within a classroom that bls native and non-native English speakers across all grade levels.

ESOL Program Overview

Our program offers both push-in and pull-out services for students from Kindergarten through 8th grade. We continuously assess each student's English proficiency in areas including reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Our teachers craft lessons integrating the language needs of diverse learners across grades and content areas, ensuring that all students have access to our dynamic curriculum.

Lower School ESOL Support

At Hangzhou International School, we believe that every teacher plays a crucial role as a language facilitator. Given the complexities of acquiring social English which can take 1-2 years versus academic English which may require up to 5-7 years, we provide comprehensive support through collaboration and co-planning with classroom educators.

Collaborative Approach

ESOL teachers work closely with classroom faculty, integrating language objectives into lesson planning. This ensures that all students, from those at the beginning stages of English acquisition to more advanced learners, are fully engaged in the academic process. We m to create an environment where students feel supported and included, fostering their growth both linguistically and socially.

Learning Support Encompasses

In addition to classroom collaboration, ESOL teachers offer specialized support sessions for students needing extra assistance outside regular class hours. These sessions not only reinforce classroom content but also build foundational literacy skills essential for academic success.
