Description: This case study presents the profile of a female high school English language learner enrolled in an English language literature course. The learner is currently positioned at level B1 on the Common European framework and documents Spanish as her native language. The setting of this case study is a private English language secondary school in Quito, Ecuador. One participant was employed for this study. Qualitative data collection methods were used following a naturalistic inquiry design strategy. This qualitative data was analyzed using phenomenological analysis of narrative data. Study results showed the participant demonstrating an increased ability to process text from a top-down level of textual processing. This result correlates with the finding that visual organizers and semantic maps are of vital use in the ESL/EFL classroom. The TEFL Program Portfolio presents a compilation of work samples demonstrating competency according to the TESOL/NCATE standards. Artifacts and accompanying rationale demonstrate how the program content has been applied to teaching ESL/EFL. By showcasing these artifacts, I have shown my ability to apply the course content to the teaching setting and address the TESOL/NCATE standards.
