    I agree with Sillygirl, I have been a teacher in Vancouver with many children starting kindergarten with little or no English, from all different language backgrounds. Children are very perceptive with social cues and following what the group is doing. I don't think you will find it difficult to make your needs known. He will catch on quickly. IME, ESL parents are anxious that their child do well and work together with the teacher/caregiver as best they can... As a teacher I preferred ESL parents!

    I had a 20 month old start with me who knew and spoke no English. It was a bit frustrating at times but a year later he's doing great.
