Default semi-literate students

Hi everyone,

Has anyone ever taught adult students who weren't literate or were semi-literate in their native language? I've read a few articles, but haven't actually experienced the problems a situation like this would pose. We have one low student like this in our schools. We also have several students who are literate in Japanese, but completely unable to read or write Roman characters.

Any ideas or suggestions would be a great help.

Thank you!
