though fortunately I am literate in English
//getting the highest possible score on the AP English exam is the best revenge

Wow. If Spanish is your first language, you are extremely literate in English....insofar as your posts go. Very cool.

How old were you when you came to this country?

It just kills me that we take people who should be a national resource- our potentially bilingual kids- and make them feel ashamed- or worse, we have educators who are too stupid or ignorant to understand why someone might need to BE educated in their language. Talk about ironies. And educator who doesn't understand an easy problem like that doesn't really belong in education.
