But Mr. Brown's response is not to the question that was asked.  The talk
is
always about L1 aiding L2, not the other way around.  It would be an
interesting thing to study.  Previously somone mentioned that students
with
problems in ESL class tended to be those with less L1 education.  STudents

in Literacy-level classes often have had so little education that they
have
not had the training in academic (school/study) skills that others have,
even those with only elementary-school education.  No wonder they don't
feel
a great desire to learn to read in their L1; they have no intention of
sitting home reading books in the evenings.  (Not that many "educated"
Americans do so, either!)
