Status: RO Content-Length: 628 Lines: 17 Hello, I work with a small ESL program in southern Illinois. We have seen an increase of ESL students who want to begin studying for their citizenship test. Additionally, we have tried to work civic participation into our lessons by encouraging those students who are functioning at a high level to become trained tutors to work with low level ESL students. So far we have five students who have become trained tutors. We are encouraging these students to share the knowledge they have acquired through our program, with others who are just beginning.
