On Alienation and the ESL Student.
Carey, Laura
Phi Delta Kappan, v71 n1 p74-75 Sep 1989
As an American alone in Barcelona, Spain, the author came to understand the everyday difficulties faced by her English-as-a-Second-Language students back in California. Being relatively affluent and well-educated is no substitute for being proficient in a foreign language, but practice helps. (MLH)
