Bilingual Paper
I am a bilingual student; I was in bilingual education for four and a half years. The bilingual education is important to me and it helps me a lot. I think the bilingual education is helpful for new immigrants.
Before I came to the United States, I was strange about the American life and I didn't know the school had bilingual education. That time I was dejected about the America school life. I was worried about what the teachers were saying in class that means I can't learn anything. Also I worried about communicating with other students because of language problems.
After I came to the United States, I to school and there was bilingual education I was very happy about that because that was like a person loses one's way and finds out how to go. But some one suggested me not to choose bilingual education because they say in bilingual education you speak your mother language a lot and you can't speak English that well. But I think if I didn't choose the bilingual education, I wouldn't understand well and that would effect my grade.
I remember these years in bilingual education. In the class teachers teach in English if the student don't understood what the teacher's saying the teacher would try to translate to them. I like this method because I can learn well and understand the course.
In an other way, bilingual education is important and helpful for me because in bilingual I can choose my own language to take some important test or the essay part. That was comfortable to take some tests in my own language. Without that I think it would be too hard to pass some tests and graduate.
Bilingual education is important and helpful for me; also it lets me have more confidence in studying. I thank the bilingual teachers because they help me and teach me a lot.
