I ran across this article, and thought I needed to share it. It made me think of growing up, and listening to my my grandmother speak English. I could understand her, but sometimes my husband, with his untrained ear couldn't.
How or would this impact the classroom? In Arizona, Complaints That an Accent Can Hinder a Teacher's Career . This made me think about accents. My gut says that it is a non- issue???? I mean what would we do with a student from the Northeast moving to a school in Texas? What about that accent?
