Well, good luck to Arizona in finding bilingual teachers that speak without an accent. A good number of them are native speakers of Spanish. Otherwise, they’re now going to limit themselves to non-accented English speakers. ESL requires that they’re fluent in two or more languages for the most part.

I am fluent in several languages, yet I do not translate into German, for example. You only teach or translate in your mother tongue, unless you’re some kind of prodigy.
