When a child whose first language isn't English is learning English it can be very challenging. It is very hard for the learner to learn the new features of the new language and distinguish them from their own. I impinge this very hard and frustrating at times. I think that as a teacher we need to keep this in mind so when we have a foreign child in the classroom struggling, we can think of how hard it must be to learn English with all of the complicated rules. As a teacher I would try and make learning the English language as easy as possible for the student by helping them after school if needed.
