When I came to know that I have been asked to take English remedial class, I was a bit mad at first, but then I thought that this class would make me better. I view remedial classes as practice, very much like professional athletes view training, because the best athletes practice to become better. As well, once students complete a degree with finishing the English remedial and begin seeking employment, they will find many companies emphasize good communication skills. So, It doesn’t matter if you know everything or nothing, what matters is that you benefit in every class (even if it’s a remedial). Soon, after my graduation I will be joining my dad’s business.
To recognize the historical fact that the United Sates has been an overwhelmingly English speaking nation since it was created and that its constitution and foundational documents are in English. 5.

Foreign policy is important because it has a lot to do with the trade, technology, and communications of the United States. Also by nations working together global problems can be fixed easier. Equal rights are important to the U.S because it shows that everyone has the same rights including: black people, white people, Asian, men and woman, ect. A bad president would make the economy go down, not believe in equal rights and have a bad foreign policy. The best president in U.S history I believe is Abraham Lincoln.
David Hardie Bleck English 101 November 2, 2011 Title In the history of the world, language is one of the most influential aspects of culture. How a society treats and embellishes language shows much about how they think about themselves, about others, and how the hierarchy of their society is constructed. The way people treat language itself says much about the place it has in human society. For example, In Jared Diamond's book Guns Germs and Steel: The Fate of Human Societies, he says of the Japanese mindset that "...Japan continues to use its horrendously cumbersome kanji writing system in preference to efficient alphabets or Japan's own efficient kana syllabary -- because the prestige attached to kanji is so great." (248).

Ever since I took classes where I learned about various countries and their cultures, it has always been my dream to be bilingual. In so many places around the world, children begin to learn English at a very young age. This has always been very important because the United States is a very powerful independent country, unlike many of the smaller countries with failing economies. This brings me to one of Gonzales’s main points, that immigrants don’t want to come to the United States, but have to for a better life. Many people think immigrants are willingly “taking over” the United States, but I agree with Gonzalez.
30 Nov. 2014. Brown is the director of foreign languages for the Glastonbury, Connecticut public schools. She has won awards for her superior foreign language teaching skills and serves on multiple teaching committees.

Running head: BACK TO SCHOOL Back to School Unnamed ENG 121 English Composition I Instructor: Unamed 20 October 2012 Back to School The world has become so competitive and sophisticated that education is the key between landing a successful career and falling by the wayside with a minimum job.

It’s a good indication that the employee will hold the same values in their business.
