The material in this handbook is based on the contributions of English as a second language (ESL) teachers who have reflected on their experience with Haitian farmworkers. It deals with the following topics: (1) a cultural and social history of Haiti; (2) characteristics of and difficulties experienced by Haitian immigrants in the United States; (3) a description of the East Coast migrant stream as a source of employment; (4) suggestions for teaching the Haitian immigrants who are generally illiterate in their own language, Creole; (5) the background of the Haitian farmworker as the cultural context for learning; (6) a description of the farm labor system as context of learning; (7) a case study of the farmworker school, including a discussion of the situation of teaching English to nonliterate adults, and the process of becoming a teacher in the farmworker school; and (8) a brief evaluation of the project. An account of student interviews evaluating the program is appended. (AMH)
