Welcome to E.L. Achieve

E.L. Achieve consults with educational agencies to create effective systems for English Learners. Our mission is to assist educators in equipping English learners for academic achievement.
E.L. Achieve's Approach to English Learner Instruction
Our research-based approach is built on:
- Features of Explicit Language Instruction that backward maps instruction from task analysis to instruction, explicitly building receptive and expressive language by connecting thinking, reading, writing, listening, and speaking
- A Blueprint for Serving English Learners that addresses:
- Explicit support in acquiring the language needed to comprehend and express understanding of grade-level work: Constructing Meaning
- Instruction in the English language as its own subject of study: Systematic English Language Development
We assist systems in moving from adopting a new initiative for serving English learners through a thoughtful launch and continual improvement to ensure successful in-depth, district- wide use.
We support the leadership and capacity building for successful implementation of effective English Learner programs.
The overarching goal is to provide teachers and administrators with knowledge, skills, and tools to:
Equip English learners with the language they need to express
the sophistication of their thinking for real life and academic purposes.
This requires that students be able to adroitly use language to fully participate in all aspects of classroom life: listening with comprehension; speaking about ideas, concepts and learning with accuracy and confidence; reading for varied purposes with understanding; and capably writing for a wide range of purposes.
