Evening ESL Students celebrated Adult Education Week with an Essay Contest.
Essay Contest Writer Luke, a student in Teacher Lily's class, shares his essay here:
What Does Adult Education Mean to Me?
I think Adult Education means letting you learn more English and then you can get more opportunities to get a better job in the United States. Also you can learn how to talk with other people, to make more and more friends.
When I came to school on the first day I was shy and very scared to talk with other people in English. And then 1 month later I felt my English getting better, I want to find a job, because I saw there is a class called "finding a job." Later I joined this class, at this class, the teacher taught me a lot, such as how to shake hands, how to introduce myself when I get an interview, and what you should not do when you are working. Now I got a job because I came to the Adult School, and I got better and better, because it is helped me a lot.
And in Adult School I met many friends. The important thing is they are from many different countries, not only China. And then they will teach me their languages. So now I feel very interested and happy.
For all these reasons and more, I like the Adult School. Adult Education to me means a big window of opportunities to know the United States, and to join this big country.
Thank you, Luke, for sharing your essay and inspiring others.
