Just last week, an Hispanic teacher told me that she has a class of Hispanic grade school kids who can't grasp concepts such as living and non-living. She is extremely frustrated and has asked for help from the school but they just keep telling her to keep things simple for them.
What she went on to describe were children who would be classified as morons.
Just wondering. Since Spanish is entirely phonetic (unlike English), what is the literacy rate? Learn your 28(?)-letter Spanish alphabet (include 'ch' and 'll') and you should be able to read anything.
Anyone have an opinion or statistics?
