Many students have trouble learning a foreign language. But for students who have significant problems in reading (or writing, listening, and speaking), learning a foreign language is more difficult.
Without a solid base in the English language, learning a second language is a formidable challenge. If your child has dyslexia, you need to know if she needs multi-sensory reading instruction to improve her reading skills.
