    Honestly, after becoming kind of fluent in English during middle school (unsupervised access to the internet and a love of fanfics since age 11 will do that to you), this was me in high school English classes, I already knew everything and my teacher knew it too, so she decided to ignore me being on my phone for like 90% of the lesson (I was quiet and did all my work and tests quickly so I guess she didn't mind. And most of the time I was actually reading fanfics in English still, sooo...)

    • @turkeyeater5206
      @turkeyeater5206 Před 27 dny +9

      I have first hand experience of how hard it is to be taken out of ESL/ELL. I didn't start learning English until I was 5 years old but by the end of 3rd grade I was already at the top 15% of the grade in reading and speaking but was still stuck in ESL/ELL.
      It's kind of funny too, since all the ESL/ELL teachers knew I didn't need their help but was still required to meet with them every now and then and so whenever I had to go meet them, they usually have all the kids doing exercises on a school subject, they just let me chill or help out the other students once I finished the exercise.
      Looking back, I went through middle school without ever having to deal with ESL and it wasn't until I started high school that they tried putting me back in ESL/ELL. Had to convince my parents to not sign the form to put me back in🤦‍♂️. Mind you, I was taking mostly honor classes at this point 😂.

They assumed English was my 3rd language and put me in ESL. Actually, English was my 3rd language but I was fluent since the beginning of grade 3.

      ESL means English as a *Second* Language, and she said Japanese was her first. So ironically what you point out isn't a contradiction.
