[quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of non 'illegals' that can't read or write at 21. I see them struggling in remedial college classes every year. As far as I can tell, a person's immigration status alone doesn't impede them from learning the difference between a noun and a pronoun. There are a great many resources online that may be helpful to bring your niece up to speed, but it would require some research and effort to put it all together. It can be time consuming to do that and she would have to be motivated if she lacks someone to oversee the process on a regular basis. The tutor idea is an excellent one, but as some have mentioned, it can be pricey. You may consider homeschool co-ops, too, if she is interested. That may be another option if any are available in her area. You may also be able to find a retired school teacher at a very reasonable price, or even free, who may be willing to work with her one on one to bring her up to speed. Developing a good rapport with an instructor can be very motivating and pivotal for a student. As she attains her goals, she will gain confidence in her ability to tackle more challenging subject matter. I wish you all the best. Your niece is lucky to have such a caring aunt. [/quote]
