ELLs Capstone Portfolio

Abstract

This paper is a review of two years of graduate studies at Vanderbilt University, which includes three parts: Teaching Philosophy, Artifact Analysis, and Application to Practice. In the teaching philosophy, I describe my understanding of high-quality teaching and teaching goals I want to achieve in the future. Then, in the second part, I reflect on my learning regarding four domains of the TESOL standards: learners, learning contexts, curriculum, and assessment, and provide artifacts of supportive evidence. The last part summarizes my achievements and regrets, as well as my concerns about future teaching.
