We have contracted the ESL instruction with an experienced teacher, but I will be responsible for the parenting piece. My group is quite mixed -- several Spanish speakers, one Chinese, one Cambodian, and some that I have referrals for but not concrete info. So my question is this: HOW do I teach parenting to this group?? I am monolingual, and in my community, there are not people who speak these languages available to do the teaching. I am not new to teaching, but I am new to both ESL and parenting instruction, so any advice is welcome! Thanks.
