Abstract: Nursing students who speak English as a second language (ESL) often struggle due to language barriers, the complexity of the medical vocabulary, and the knowledge base that they must develop in a short time. The purpose of this basic qualitative research study was to develop a greater understanding of nurse educators' perceptions when teaching ESL students. Thematic data analysis identified four themes on how to support ESL students, the academic gap, teaching environments, and faculties’ development needs. Caring for high acuity patients requires a high level of cognition. It is crucial to help this population by investing in nursing faculty. Recommended Citation Ruiz Muñiz, N. S. (2020, October 1-2).
