19 May 2026, 4:00pm – 5:00pm, AEST, Online

Summary

Suitable for teachers from early childhood through to adult education, this practical VicTESOL session with Amity Adler explores how Science of Learning approaches can be implemented in ways that are inclusive of multilingual learners. Rather than treating EAL students as exceptions to evidence-based practice, the presentation considers how mainstream teachers can adapt routines, instruction and collaboration so that multilingual learners have genuine access to learning. The session highlights the importance of high expectations, inclusive classroom practices, and avoiding deficit assumptions about students’ language backgrounds. It offers practical examples of how teachers can support multilingual learners while maintaining rigorous, evidence-informed teaching.
