A hundred years ago, schools also had immigrant children speaking various languages.

The solution was English immersion. No teacher says anything in any language but English. The kids will pick it up. Immigrant kids from a century ago did.

The immigrant children learned most of it on the streets and playgrounds, much tougher than teachers. Teachers merely provided structure and discipline.
