The impressions of White House

I am very happy and honored visit White House; because it is the place where the president official business and lives.

The White House is not me imagine very sumptuous, but I am still happy and glad to visit White House.  because I am Chinese, I am lived in China forty one year.  I never visit "Zhong Nan Hai" (the China maximum leader's job place).  in the China, general common people can't visit "Zhong Nan Hai"; the White House can let the common people visit.  Prove that the president and American government kind of people.

My name is Adele.  I am from Cameroon Central Africa.  I came to the USA in Nov. 2007.  In my country, we speak two languages, English and French, but I speak French.  It was difficult for me to speak english fluently.  I was not comfortable to speak with people.  Since I started taking english class in the Litteracy council program, I seem comfortable in my job, in the street.  Thanks for giving me this opportunity.

I went to the Library trying to find help with my English, because I wanted to find a person that teach me one by one.  One day I received a good news, the counselor said "You will take classes in the library two times a week."  Since day I've been learning a lot English, grammar, listening, speaking, reading and writing.  It was difficult for me understand when someone talked fast or didn't understand too when I read an orticle or I was afraid when i had to talk with someone or by phone....Now I feel comfortable, more secure and I can communiate easily with my son's teacher, with neighbors and of course every day my life is better because I make less mistakes.  Thanks a lot to my teacher because I'm learning English and history too.
