Before I came to the United States, I knew none of letters in English. I was going to school. I was just like a newborn baby. I didn’t know how to speak English, read and write at all. The first week I went to school, my teacher asked, “What is your name?” And I didn’t know what she was saying to me. I thought she told me how to speak but she didn’t. She just asked what my name was. When she and any student asked me, “What is your name?” My answer back to them was, “What is your name?” They said, “No, what is your name?” with their finger pointed at me. I just said the same question back to them again. I had repeated again and again to them until they got angry with me. I thought that was the right answer to say back but it wasn’t. After a few months I knew what people tried to say. Each night I studied very hard to understand English until now.
Now I am able to speak English better. I also know how to read and write in English. Now I could help my children study, teach them how to do their homework, and meet with their teachers. Now I know how to answer any question when people ask anything about me. Now I got my diploma and I also plan to go to college. I’ll study harder to reach college one day soon I hope.
