Educators are charged with ensuring all students receive quality instruction that addresses their needs regardless of their varying ethnic backgrounds. In places where student populations include a diverse English Language Learner (ELL) population, teachers' roles are expanded to incorporate instructional strategies that support learning relative to each cultural demographic represented in their classrooms. The problem addressed in this study is that preschool teachers are experiencing challenges in providing instruction to non-Spanish speaking ELL students. Participants in this study included two preschool teachers that instruct non-Spanish speaking ELL students and two preschool directors that oversee schools with teachers responsible for instructing non-Spanish speaking ELL students. The deliberate practice theory in tandem with the transformational leadership theory were utilized as the conceptual frameworks that guided the study in exploring the preschool teachers' experiences. Data for the research was gathered through semi-structed interviews, classroom observations, and archival data. Analysis of the data resulted in the emergence of the following themes: (a) acknowledging cultural differences, (b) the necessity of assessments in the learning process, and (c) resources and support from leaders and/or outsiders are essential. Recommendations for practice included (a) preschool in-service training programs expanding to provide early literacy trainings that address the needs of ELL students, (b) preschools supply teachers with culturally relevant curriculum / materials reflecting the ELL population of students within the schools. Recommendations for future research entailed (a) a qualitative exploratory case study with a larger sample size and (b) a qualitative exploratory case study with a large diverse population of ELL students in another region of the U.S. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
