Hi, I'm Ieva Grauslys.

I am an ESL teacher, teaching consultant, and owner of simplyieva.com and The ESL Teaching Roadmap, where I provide help to busy ESL teachers with ready-made resources, actionable tips, and meaningful coaching.

I have been a teacher for over 14 years and have worked with English learners at various stages of their English learning journey. And here is what I've learned...

ESL teachers in middle and high school struggle with either NO curriculum or a curriculum from companies that have never been in the classroom, and are not in touch with our teaching reality.

My years of experience and my Master's degree in Teaching English as a Foreign Language have allowed me to take a fresh, creative and practical approach to teaching English learners. In addition, as a former English learner myself, I bring my background and unique perspectives to the classroom and material creation. That allows me to simply and easily connect with both ESL students and educators alike. 

Engaging resources PLUS support and empowerment of ESL teachers - to save you time, protect your sanity, and help you gain confidence - that is why I created the ESL Teaching Roadmap.

Frequently Asked Questions 

How long do I have access to The ESL Teaching Roadmap membership?

With the Light Monthly Plan, you have access to the ETR as long as you choose to be a member (i.e. as many months as you pay the monthly subscription)

With the VIP Annual Pass, you have access to all the materials and coaching in the ETR membership for ONE full year. After that, you will need to renew, if you wish.  

What if I am unhappy with the membership program?

We would never want you to be unhappy and always welcome your feedback! However, due to the nature of the materials - i.e. digital downloads - no refunds will be offered for the membership. Please email your concerns to simplyieva@gmail.com and we will make sure to address the issues as soon as we can.  

How do I know if The ESL Teaching Roadmap is for me?

If you are can relate to at least one of the following, then it is for you!

  • ESL/ELL teachers who are looking for ready-made materials to support their newcomers/beginners
  • the ONLY ESL/ELL teacher in your district with little to no support  
  • ESL/ELL teachers who travel between schools and work with multiple age groups  
  • ESL/ELL teachers work with multi-level classrooms in an ESL/ELL support role  
  • ESL/ELL teachers who do not have a curriculum to follow and have no idea where to even begin  
  • teachers who are looking for both materials and a supportive community so they can regain their time, sanity and confidence.  

How much do I have to participate in the community?

It's totally up to you. We think you'll gain more value if you join our Facebook group and participate in discussions or ask questions. But you can also use the membership in a more straightforward way - for worksheets, lesson plans, etc. if you'd like.
