    I grew up in California and had the opposite experience. I had friends who grew up speaking Mexican-Spanish at home, and would take the Spanish classes to get an easy A.

    The teachers never understood what the Mexican-Spanish students were saying, and kept telling the native speakers that they were doing it wrong.
