5. Role of Parents
Teach academic skills, especially critical thinking skills, in the primary language. Research shows that skills obtained in the primary language will transfer to the secondary language once it is acquired.
Encourage friendships with native English speakers, especially over the summer and winter break when students tend to regress.
Stay in contact with us when you have questions, comments, or concerns.
