State-Supported for MN Adult Ed.

Ellii

From grammar and literacy to career preparation, dialogues, and debates, the ever-expanding library of learner-focused content makes it easy to find materials relevant to learners’ language needs. New content is added almost daily.

Ellii was called ESL Library prior to 2022.

To request a staff account on the state-supported plan, ALL staff must complete a training. The training is self-paced and consists of a Google Slide deck, 2 short quizzes, an evaluation, and an optional podcast. If Google Slides are not accessible to you, a PDF of the slides is available below. Please allow 90 minutes to complete the entire training.

Ellii is designed for adult learners and assumes a basic level of digital literacy. Check out this resource (Google Doc) with tips for supporting learner success. A Microsoft Word version is available below.
