As a counterpoint to that observation, I can think of several close
friends who speak and write English far more elegantly and accurately
than I do, none of whom learned English as a first language.
If there is a requirement to be able to read and write English
accurately, then let it be specified as such and not by potentially
false assumptions as to what childhood background anyone might
imagine would influence linguistic performance.
