The short answer is: maybe. If you have high school level Spanish speaking students who struggle with English, some of the high school level lessons will speak portions of the lessons in Spanish. To do this, you must log in to Skills Tutor directly rather than using the link from Assessment Center. To do this, go to: www.myskillstutor.com or click the link in Assessment Center for Skills Tutor, and once there, click the "Log Out" command on the left.
In either case, you will now need a site ID to log in to your school's site. If you don't have this, your project leader can provide it for you. Just send an email request for that information if you need it. You will also need to click the box below the log-in info which states: Play audio in Spanish (when it is available).
If you have elementary level Spanish speaking students who are just learning English, you might find the Beginning Language Arts and Beginning Math lessons helpful. These lessons can be accessed just as you would any other other Skills Tutor lesson, but before clicking on the start button, the student should click on the link which states: Esuche el audio en Español. The lesson then will have the audio in Spanish and the text in English.
Please let your project leader know if you have any questions about using Skills Tutor with your ELL students.
