There is a time and place for homework. But, there are some teachers out there that give homework with no reasoning. Prove your homework's worth. Share what a typical week looks like for you involving extra work.

"I only want to give homework that enhances learning outside the classroom. With this in mind, I work to give homework that allows the student to view the world around them in a new way. Let's say we are working on words for different foods. I may have a homework assignment for students to write out the English name of foods that they have in their fridge or pantry."

I want homework for my students that furthers their learning. Each student gets different homework based on where they are at in the class. One student might need to dive into American culture, while another one needs to get up-to-date with American cars. Homework will be adapted in that way.

Don't overextend yourself. You are fine to use resources from the past and reach out to other ESL teachers who can help in the process.
