They often collaborate closely with ESL teachers to ensure students receive the help they need to succeed academically.

As an ESL Paraprofessional, you will work closely with classroom teachers to provide targeted support to English language learners (ELLs). This often involves assisting with differentiated instruction, helping students understand lesson content, and adapting materials to meet diverse language needs. You may also provide small group or one-on-one support, reinforce language development activities, and help monitor student progress. Collaboration and regular communication with teachers are key to ensuring that ELL students receive the assistance they need to succeed academically.
