Yes, anyone can teach ELL students but it has to be done with the training and understanding of the English reading and writing rules.
Knowing how proficient the ELL student in his/her own language helps assess the level that the student will be in the English language. If the student was not able to read in his/her native language, English vocabulary and sentence structure will be very difficult for the student to comprehend. Therefore, the teacher or instructor will have to monitor and provide examples and maybe visuals for the student to become fluent in vocabulary. The same will be for introducing sentence structure.
The process for someone to teach will be rewarding using the right tools.
Yamil,
Those with the willingness to teach and with the appropriate training. I say this because in any language there are grammatical rules, sentence structure that one must pay attention to while teaching others. Proper, correct communication is very important in order to others achieve success at language acquisition. :-)
