Could be more engaging but consists of a whole lot of relative information.
The topics were very interesting and easy to follow. I enjoyed learning about ELL.
Informative, but not as involved as the previous ELL courses.
The course perfectly describes very effectively How we can engage English language learners and their families. Got a wonderful Experience. Special Thanks Team Coursera For such a great job.

Five stars: wonderful content, I was engaged. No matter what ,I give a perfect score. However, I wish the instructors were less "I'm reading a script" and sounded more natural. I also missed video summary for some modules and module quiz to refresh knowledge. Thank you Ellen, Claire and ASU for making affordable this course and specialization. My gratitude with all of you!
I truly enjoyed this course. As a speech-language pathologist, learning how to work with ELLs and their families was especially helpful as I work in the city with very diverse populations. Thank you for the wonderful course!
I already new that family help is important and we do engage them one way or another in or institute. This course provided with more ideas and examples for getting them involved in learning of their family member.
Excellent material to be able to apply with my students and parents; also with colleagues and the entire educational community

It has been great pleasure to take this course. I have learned a lot.
Very useful course for ESL Teachers!
Awesome. Very informative
Excellent Course!!
I'm giving this course a low rating not because of content, but because of the technical frustrations with the posting of assignments and the lack of ability to reach out and have someone help with technical issues. The content was rich and powerful, however, submitting the profiles and case study was frustrating
