TIMESTAMPS:
(0:00) Introduction
(3:01) Paula’s Background
(10:22) If a student has any learning challenges or is exceptional, they cannot learn more than 1 language
(15:44) If a child has a language difficulty, then the family should only speak to them in English at home
(16:47) What is Contrastive Analysis
(18:17) Learning more than one language may be too confusing to children and lead to a language delay, decreased cognitive abilities, or academic problems
(25:20) The older someone is, the harder it is to acquire a second language
(31:14) Once students can speak English, they are ready to learn and succeed in a mainstream classroom.
(36:52) It is a sign of a child being lazy if they mix two languages together instead of just using them one at a time.
(41:21) Bilingual children will perfectly use and have equal knowledge of both languages.
(43:33) Who Paula works with
(53:50) What if a listener is interested in learning more about this
(57:00) Lightning Question Round!

Erin grew up in Cleveland, Ohio—the only girl in a family with four children. She studied communication sciences and disorders as an undergrad at the University of Cincinnati and then earned an MA in speech-language pathology from Eastern Michigan University. Between undergrad and graduate school, Erin obtained her nursing assistant license working as an STNA during grad school, prior to getting a job as an SLP.
Erin has spent her whole career in SNFs across four states, though she’s lost count of the number of facilities. Since moving to Minnesota, she’s found my inner country girl—picking up gardening, canning, and chopping wood. Erin also enjoys biking, camping, kayaking, and reading when she’s not keeping her puppy out of trouble.
