Subject: [ProfessionalDevelopment 649] List introduction: Dr.
Clark/Texas

Hello. My name is Dr. Clark von Heller from the Mexico-Texas border. My
area of interest and research has been Adult ESOL issues, ranging from
assessment to multi-level classes (having authored a book on the
latter). I served as Coordinator of the Texas ESOL Teacher Training
Project in the 90's with Dr. Mark Walsh at Texas A&I University in
Kingsville, Texas. What a wonderful challenge! Hispanics are the fastest
growing group in the USA, thus the need for Adult ESOL training and
growth potential, is very real, nationwide. Currently I am working with
college aged ESOL learners on the border. We have identified five levels
of students in our program, including 0 level for preliterates which may
come as a surprise to some practitioners in other parts of the country.
I offer intensive Adult Ed training and staff development as well as
keynoting events/conferences nationwide. If I could ever be of service,
I would be happy to visit your state and program and perhaps make a few
suggestions or help in any way possible. My details are:
