Reflection

My research has confirmed my language belief by showing that the language you speak defines you by showing personality. What I now want to add to my language belief is that when you are learning a new language it tests your learning capabilities.
Question soon to be answered:
1.
Where you live affect learning a knew language?
2. How you are raised...?
3. How your teacher teach...?
4. Does your everyday schedule affect your learning capabilities?

Recommendations

If I had to continue my research I would look up locations where kids have the most trouble learning and try to find out if where they live is why they're having trouble in school. What I learned was that was it doesn't matter which language you learned first it depends on your learning capabilities. What I need to study more in depth is if other languages have a level of difficulty.

Conclusion

The research( primary and secondary), I collected showed that it depends on your learning capabilities than your language. I say this because my mom and my two uncles, all lived under the same rules and language and she was the only one who learned english the quickest. What you can learn from my research is that if you study anough you can learn any language.

Sources

I used Galileo; I put in hispanics, Puerto Rico, and bilingual in the keywords space.
I got two articles:
The first one was about hispanic dropouts.
The second was about Puerto Rican heritage.

Research Question(s)

Does it depend on knowing a kind of language to learn another?

Does it have to do with the language you know or your learning capabilities if you want to learn a second language?

Research Goal

I want to know if it depends on the language you speak or your learning capabilities to learn a new language and be taught in that language. I want to know this because for some people its hard to learn a second languages and for some it isn't, and it seems that it would be someones learning capabilities. But I am not sure if which language you know counts too.

Interpretation of Data

The data meant that people have diffrent ways and similar ways to learn a second language in my case ,Spanish and English. What my data showed was that people had the same and diffrent interpretations on learning a second language.
