Teaching English Language Learners: A Differentiated Approach by .. L. Iza (Athens, Ga.)
I would recommend this book to all teachers who teach English language learners. It is packed with research based strategies and approaches. The marginal questions on many pages encourage the reader to reflect on the information presented and question how it could be applied to the classroom. This is a must read. I have read many books in my professional career as an ESOL teacher and program consultant but this book was so informative, I read it twice! I am recommending it to all my colleagues.

ELL by .. M. Ripley (Issaquah, WA United States)
OK. Easy to read, nicely organized but I learned the same things in one day seminars that are cheaper than the book. Was not worth it to me.

Basic ELL Training by .. Danny Chui (South San Francisco, CA)
This book pretty much covers exactly what most good ELL training books cover, so it definitely has great info., but you could find this info. in many other places. If you need a comprehensive book for teaching ELL, this one would probably be among the best, simply because of all the other works it cites.
