What kind of impact does a student native language, literacy, and culture on his second language learning?

Examples are appreciated. And I mean to say "student's" in the main question, but I couldn't fit those extra characters.

    There are entire books on that subject- and many research articles.

    Try Manning and Baruth, Multicultural Education of Children and Adolescents or Levine and McCloskey or Grabe and Krashen on Reading.
