Wonderful update from J.K., the tutor of an ESOL student

We received this wonderful update from J.K., the tutor of an ESOL student whom we can’t name for security reasons:

Initially, she was very anxious about meeting with the girls’ teachers. Apparently, teachers in her home country are known to be quite strict, and she firmly believed she would struggle to communicate with or understand them. Given that she could not attend school in her own country, the prospect was truly daunting.

However, she confidently stepped into the pre-K classroom. After being given a tour by her youngest daughter, she sat at the teacher’s desk and had a lovely, informative conversation about her child’s first experiences at school. She thoroughly enjoyed learning about her daughter’s progress and development.

Encouraged by this experience, she has expressed interest in attending future school meetings. This was a significant step in embracing her parenting responsibilities in her new country and realizing that she can successfully communicate with and understand authority figures.
