Language can Unify or Divide Us.

Language is an important key for our social live. It allow us to communicate and share our experiences to other people that are different from us. Language permits us to learn many things in our community, culture and society in the world. For example, if you come new country and don't know the language, you might not be able to find a job. You might not be able to communicate other people.
 Another example is the immigrant to the United Stated to become a citizen they must show a basic knowledge of U.S. history and government, applicants for citizenship are required to demonstrate an ability to write, read, and speak English. I think to become the part of the this country the immigrants who would like to come to U.S. should learn to speak the language no matter how long they plan to stay.

My immigration experience

My name is Suad, and I came from Somalia. I came to the United States in August 2007, and I moved from London U.K. where I lived for seven years. When I came to London, I didn't know how to speak the English language.  Then I enrolled at Greenich Community College in East London. I attended there for three years and learned basic English and computing. I also worked as a care assistant for nearly four years, and I was trained in Health and Social Care for six month and have qualifications. The reason I came here was to join my husband who already lived here since 2000. My immigration status has changed, and now I became a U.S citizen last month on October 5, 2011. Since I 'm here in America,  I completed my high school diploma at VOA. This is the second time I graduated from high school.  The first time I graduated was when I was in my country. Even though the civil-war in my country had stopped my efforts to accomplish my study, when I came to America I decided to continue my study and succeed.
