The school I work at is an international school; consequently, the majority of kids there are ESL. Supposedly, they speak English. I have a few students where I have yet to see any evidence of said language ability.
In case any of you are wondering what that looks like when it comes time to grade papers, let me give you an example. I received a little plastic game at white elephant Christmas party. There is no brand name except "Toys" and "Made in China." These are the instructions to the game:
