Abstract
English as a second language (ESL) students are defined as students who attend grade school outside the United States and use language other than English on a daily basis (Scheele, Pruitt, Johnson, & Xu, 2011). ESL nursing students are a subpopulation group of minority students who are bilingual and immigrant with different cultural backgrounds.
