It is easy to listen and focus on a child next to you unless a child was being distracting by throwing a…

Paul Dempster faces many challenges in Deptford. The reason he survives is because he moves into an environment that better…

Moving from a country to another is already hard enough. Having to adapt and even learn a new language makes it twice as difficult. This is something that a lot of people in the United States have to deal with, myself included. I moved from El Salvador when I was nine years old. I had to get accustomed to practically a new way of living. I had to get used to a new culture and a new way of communicating. I started fourth grade here and I was put in an ESL class. My first year in school wasn’t as…
