    Re: Searching for good CA locations for ESL
    Posted by Interested in "ESL" or "ELD" on 7/02/08

    Hello all!

    I am a California native ready to come back after many years from
    Detroit- probably next year. I have K-12 Spanish (major) and 7-12 English
    degree (I teach elementary Spanish in a charter school in Detroit) and am
    in the process of going back for my masters...I am trying to figure what
    would make me more marketable..Michigan is really tough right now. My
    question: is there a high demand for "ELD" teachers in California? I ask
    because I heard that many districts are moving away from ELD
    programs...hopefully that is incorrect. Thank you for any info :)
