Chinese American Students and the Communication Gap
Chinese-American students are experiencing communication gaps when they go to school, especially those school that are for Americans or others, because they are having a hard time learning the language. Chinese-American students are academically intelligent are incompetent when it comes to their communication efficiency and it really affects his/her overall improvement. This situation is not really new to Chinese-Americans.
It’s the parents’ role to teach or guide an immigrant child in growing up in order for them not to absorb only one culture, that’s either Chinese or American.
