SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Through a basic qualitative approach this study examined the linguistic challenges faced by non- English-speaking Saudi parents whose children attended schools from preschool to Grade 3 in a large Midwestern urban city in the United States. Previous studies have examined the challenges faced by Saudi parents in general, but this study focused on the linguistic communication challenges in particular. Through interviews and a focus group, information was gathered from parents regarding the challenges they faced when they tried to help their children with their schoolwork. The results from the data collected showed that parents faced varied challenges such as lack of motivation by their children, misunderstanding school regulations, and variable communication difficulties. Results from this study indicated that schools should take their part in alleviating these challenges by providing after-school programs or additional classes for non-English-speaking students, holding periodical teacher/parent meetings, and hiring an Arabic-speaking teacher or interpreter. Sharing experiences among parents themselves and hiring a private tutor have also proved to be effective temporary solutions.
