When I was 3 years old my family moved from Mexico to the US.I faced many challenges . In kindergarten in 1st and 2nd grade I wasn't able to speak English because my mother tongue is Spanish.My school put me in an extra class which helped me learning the language.Now my language skills are as good as an native speaker. Looking back its one of my funniest and most embarrassing childhood stories.
