As with native English speaking
students, siblings differ greatly in their personalities and ability levels. It
is not uncommon to find that students perform to different degrees than their
siblings when it comes to English language proficiency just as it is not common
for them to perform differently on standardized tests. It is also not unusual
to have a student who has exited the program while his or her sibling is still
receiving ESL services.
In the
article below, you will find information on why some students have higher
levels of English language proficiency than their siblings: personalities, interest
in a given language, learning disabilities, etc.
