My students are wonderful teenagers from over 30 countries around the world, and they are all new to America and to the English language. They come from China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Tibet, Nepal, Sierra Leone, Guinea, Panama, the Dominican Republic, Ukraine, Mauritania, and many other countries. And the beautiful thing about our school is that all of these students learn to collaborate in class and build their English skills and their content knowledge together. It is a community of caring, respect, and generosity and I feel very lucky to be a part of it. Many of my students are from families that have very recently arrived in America, and as such, they are just getting on their feet economically. Many of these families chose to come to the U.S. in order to give their children educational and professional opportunities not available in their native lands. I want to provide my students with the very best materials and educational activities that I can possibly offer.
