I will return to CTE later today, but before that, I wanted to put this out there:
The Pew Hispanic Center has released a report on English Usage Amongst Hispanics in the US, which can be found here.
According to the study 88% of US-born adult Latinos say that they speak and read English very well. In contrast, only 23% of foreign-born Latinos say that they speak English very well.
The study is somewhat imperfect - as its asks for mere opinion and doesn't actually measure the participants' English fluency - but it is sure to be important data for the bilingual education community.
