    A major impact to my literacy development occurred when I was only four years old, and reminds me of the quote from Nelson Mandela, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes into his head. If you talk to a man in his own language, that goes into his heart.” (Mandela). I can relate to this quote because Arabic is my first language, not English, so when someone speaks to me in English the translation has to first take place in my head so that I can make sense of it. However,…
