“Share our goal to excel academically, not just get by” (151). This was a piece of advice given by the book when trying to look past language mistakes.
This really jumped off the page at me because in my mentor teachers classroom we have 4 foreign exchange students, and all but one speaks English well. As she takes notes she writes vocabulary and numbers in her own language on the paper, and my teacher has taken the time to learn a couple of the words to help her in class. He cares that she understands the material and doesn’t just take notes and squeaks by on tests.
