Try this article on using buddies as a helpful strategy for your ENL/ESL students. Specific suggestions about what kind of buddy to choose and what buddy responsibilitites should be are very useful. You may want to share some portions of this article with the buddies themselves in secondary-level classes. Don't forget to also read TeachersFirst's Top Ten Tips for Working with ESL/ELL students.

In the Classroom

Be sure to pass this site and information on to peers who are also working with ENL/ESL students. Continuing the strategy across the various classes a student is enrolled in can make it more effective and help ease the transition into an English-speaking school.
