I was 11 when my family and I left Mexico and emigrated to America, and English was the first culture shock I had, because although I learned some basic lessons in speech and writing in English in Mexico, I still could not be as good in oral and written English in relation to the natives. He would also enter elementary school a few months after our arrival, so my parents, me and my older sister enrolled in special classes for new immigrants to learn to write correct grammar and spelling in English, and speaking proper English.
Besides English classes, I taught classes for new immigrants and subsequent experience, I studied and learned during my primary school and secondary teachers in my language class for immigrants and some of my teachers from my elementary and high school told me stuff about how I could continue to develop and improve my English grammar, writing and my skills in spoken English.
Six years have passed since we arrived, and I can proudly say that my English grammar is considerably developed and improved since then, especially now that I entered the university during the months of confidence in my grammar and spelling.
Important tips that language teachers have always said that the class immigrants to read an English book well written, magazines and newspapers. They told us to read literature, books that are commonly treated in schools and are popular in American culture, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The House on the Prairie and other popular children's books. Familiarize yourself with good English conversation, read magazines, and current events and magazines that specialize in well-written articles, which showed the correct grammar and spelling.
