Gail Eigl
San Francisco USD Literacy Specialist & coach
San Francisco
I have been teaching English Language Learners since 2001 when I started my student teaching at Horace Mann Middle School in the heart of the Mission District in San Francisco. We are now BVHM, a Spanish Dual Immersion School, a combination of my old school and the first public Spanish Dual Immersion School in San Francisco, Buena Vista. I know the dual immersion model serves our ELLs best but we can always improve our implementation just as we can always improve our own teaching practice. I'm always working on improvement and I'm excited to be at CABE as presenter and attendee. I am interested in all topics related to equity in education and society at large.
