well that depends on the environment that the students grew up in...if they grew up with people of their races and speak their native language with them all the time...it's gonna be harder for them to pick up English
i know Chinese people in New York that lived in NY for many yrs but still coudn't speak good english just cause their schools were populated with a Chinese majority
