[quote=Anonymous]The student will pick up English quickly. My experience with Eritrean and Ethiopian families is that they take education very seriously. Use the same resources you would with a Spanish speaker (not Spanish language, obviously). In my school, we have a history of getting a diverse group of newcomers on their first stop in the US school system. Teaching-wise, having a student with no language peers is really not that different from any other newcomer student. The real challenge is likely the emotional piece of being in an environment with a completely different culture where nothing is familiar. [/quote]
