Dear Listers,

Have you seen a growing number of youth in your ESOL programs? If so, you may have some information to share with others practitioners in adult education.  Please see Barbara Garner's questions below.  If you want to reply, please reply to her at barbara_garner@worlded.org, not to the NIFL-ESL list.

Thanks,

Subject: [NIFL-FOBASICS:794] Youth in ABE


I've been hearing rumors about the growing number of youth in ABE
programs. I'm planning to do an issue of Focus on Basics on the
phenomenon and successful strategies for handling youth and adults in
one program.

Two questions:
1) Has the number of youth (16-24) as a percentage of your enrollment
increased in the past two years? By how much? 

2) How are you handling it?

I look forward to hearing from you. 

Thanks,
Barb Garner
Editor, Focus on Basics
