[quote=Anonymous]I have a lot of severe learning disabilities that weren't diagnosed until I was 19, so I just failed hard at most aspects of school. I don't know how it was done but my mother got it put into my IEP that I was foreign language exempt. I wasn't diagnosed with language issues, but I can tell you that I can't hear the difference between "dog" and "but" in spanish. Like my ear/brain literally can't process a difference between the two sounds. Did you ever see Joey learning French on Friends? That's me. So my guess is that if you put your kid in immersion, he'd learn more Spanish than he'd otherwise learn if he weren't in immersion, but he won't learn as much as they intend for him to learn or enough to keep up with the rest of his grade. Sorry, I can tell that's not what you want to hear.[/quote]
