RE: ESL licensure

["Becky Sieve" <beckysieve@domain.hidden>]

Dear Ann,

I am currently enrolled at Hamline University and am in the process of 
completing my ESL K-12 licensure.  After reviewing my application, you 
previously indicated that I would need to complete a primary level 
practicum.  I am writing to enquire about the steps I would need to take to 
fulfill that requirement.

In 1989-90, I taught ESL in Japan to children ranging in age from 3 to 17 
years old.  However, I am only licensed to teach at the secondary level in 
the United States.  This July, Prairie Elementary School, located in 
Worthington, MN., is offering ESL classes on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and 
Thursdays from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  Would I be able to complete the 
elementary component by volunteering for this program?  If yes, what steps 
do I need to take for varification, etc...?

Perhaps you recall that I am currently teaching ESL at the Worthington 
Middle School and hope to eventually obtain a MA/ESL Degree through Hamline 
University.  I've appreciated your help in the past and thank you in advance 
for your time.

Sincerely,

Rebecca Sieve
