Language in Academic Settings

I believe students have to right to there own language in an academic setting. Style and being true to your identity is so important to follow in school. If you're not being yourself then you'll never feel fully comfortable and people go to school to in a hopes to feel comfortable in their own environment. The most important part of school is learning and what you get out of it; a degree. Being able to express yourself in a way that helps you get your point across is the goal. Students should be allowed to do so and be graded with an open mind from the teacher. If people are used to talking a certain way in their everyday lives, it could effect the way they learn and understand the material. If they are learning and speaking a way that they are not used to and have trouble understanding then how can they really learn properly? They can't. It's just not going to happen. English is my language and I'm proud to speak it. I would never want to give it up. 

 It isn't that hard to have a few teachers who can speak more then one language so that they can work with all different types of kids. The students are not the problem. Its the School systems for not complying with the students abilities. If the system want to see the best results in students work then they need give student the right to their own language in school. The world accepts all languages and style why can't the school systems?
