Second Language Acquisition: Success Factors in Sequential Bilingualism

1st January, 2008

Kohnert, K. (2008, February 12). The ASHA Leader.
Second-language (L2) acquisition may begin at almost any age or life stage. For some, L2 acquisition begins in childhood in educational programs that use a language different from that spoken at home. For others, L2 learning begins with visits or immigration to another country. In all instances, L2 learners vary in their maturational states, first language (L1) ability, world experience, and reasons for L2 acquisition.
