School has changed my primary language to English and can be argued for the better or worse. For one, it has been good because I am granted the ability to learn in a country that has the best opportunities, in my opinion, to succeed in society. I have the privilege to learn in the school system that my parents never had and my education has helped me accomplish my goals. The basics that is required in the United States is to speak English and can save a lot of trouble when trying to advance for a good career. In fact, schooling has changed my attitude and opinions about diverse subjects. It has led me to think differently with a wide range of perspectives that school has taught me. Not only has it changed my perspective on things, I truly feel more confident as well as determined to continue learning because I understand it has great benefits in today’s world. On the contrary, my native language is slowly fading away. I can’t speak Spanish as well with my relatives because my education has completely obligated me to use English, thus forgetting and lacking to speak Spanish fluently. In addition to change, education has had an effect on my character. My character has changed me because I don’t act the same as I would with family. Now that I think about it, I feel humiliated of my own self because I thought the humiliation and shame was for the reason that my family was from Mexican descent. I would feel embarrassed as a child and throughout my teenage years in the view that my culture wasn’t good enough for society. Although, I should be proud of my family and shouldn’t let the inferiority often felt in school change me due to others
