This was a good module as the prior.  I already incorporate these strategies.  It is quite enjoyable to see the light bulb goes off.  It takes patience on the instructor to be familiar with the challenges and incorporate strategic strategies that would lead to success.  I often use myself as an example with English proficiency.  I am not the best speaker, therefore you can accomplish this.  I purposely mis speak where appropriate to demonstrate to them I still make mistakes.  This seems to relax the mood.  Lastly, I agree for all students it is important to create a safe environment for communication.  I let the students know I am not here to grade their English grammar, but here to make sure they can understand the communication in order to know what to ask the patient who also may be an ESL individual. 

I would like to see ESL students in nursing connected with each other, have a mentor from their same culture where they can hear similar stories and stories of successes.
