For our Volunteer Tutors only. Meet with Rita to learn about a new ELL resource called Ellii that we're going to offer our Tutors! Learn about what Ellii is and how to use it. Why use Ellii? It has over 2,000 ready-made ELL lessons, resources, and flashcards! If you're looking for extra materials and practice to use in class or want to find a topic that is relevant to class, you can search it up on Ellii to see what materials you can already use without having to make your own. We're excited to share this awesome resource with our Tutors!
