[quote=Anonymous]^^ Hate to brake it to you, but you're incorrect. As other posters have pointed out, in programs with no "native" speakers, the kids still achieve proficiency. So fluent native speakers aren't a requirement to begin with. I'd much rather have my child learn with kids that speak the language. Simple. You can grow up in a Spanish home all you want, if you speak English, whereas the American kid who learned Spanish enthusiastically speaks Spanish, you'll speak English. I want my kid learning from the enthusiastic American native speaker. My kid will learn more that way. If it makes you feel better, let's pretend like the American kid learned to salsa and eats beans every night.[/quote]
