My goal is to learn English, to write and speak because it is very important here in
the USA. For example, f or my future, I help my children with homework and read
notes that my children bring f or me. I need to write notes for their teachers. I
need to speak English to communicate with their teacher. My dream is to get my
cosmetology license.
