<strong>We</strong> are very proud again to partner with the Metroplex’s<br />
premiere support organization <strong>for</strong> New Americans, the DFW<br />
International Community Alliance, to bring <strong>you</strong> the Guide To<br />
English Classes (ESL) For Adults. This booklet represents<br />
a treasure of resources and is only a small token of DFW<br />
International Community Alliance’s labor of love to welcome<br />
and help New Americans grow, succeed, and thrive in their<br />
new homeland.<br />
My own parents were immigrants, and, as <strong>you</strong>’ll read<br />
below, nearly everyone in America is a new immigrant or a<br />
descendent of immigrants, so <strong>you</strong>r participation in America<br />
follows our best and most cherished tradition of advancement.<br />
Without <strong>you</strong>, we would be a little less the America we could<br />
be. So welcome to <strong>you</strong>r new home and to the resources<br />
presented in this booklet.<br />
44% of the residents of North Texas are New Americans<br />
(<strong>for</strong>eign-born and their children) and in 32% of our homes<br />
a language other than English is spoken. Recognizing that<br />
fluency in English increases an individuals opportunities<br />
<strong>for</strong> economic success while offering fuller participation in<br />
all areas in American life, DFW International Community<br />
Alliance has prepared this guide <strong>for</strong> <strong>you</strong>.<br />

Throughout our history we have relied on the expertise,<br />
strength, and special skills of <strong>for</strong>eign workers and<br />
immigrants to build the United States. <strong>We</strong> recognize<br />
that we are unique in the world because all Americans<br />
except <strong>for</strong> our indigenous peoples are descended from<br />
immigrants. Their cultures and the challenges they<br />
continue to face as they assimilate are the story of our<br />
nation. Their hopes and dreams, their strong belief in<br />
family and freedom enrich and energize America.<br />
This guide is a small symbol of our gratitude to <strong>you</strong> and<br />
to the dedicated educators who wish to assist <strong>you</strong> in<br />
reaching <strong>you</strong>r personal and economic goals.

Americanos (nacidos en el extranjero o sus hijos) y<br />
en el 32% de nuestros hogares se habla un lenguaje<br />
distinto al inglés.<br />
Reconociendo que hablar fluidamente Inglés aumenta<br />
nuestras oportunidades de lograr éxito económico y<br />
nos permite una participación más plena en todos los<br />
ámbitos de la vida estadounidense, es que desde DFW<br />
International Community Alliance hemos preparado<br />
esta guía para usted.<br />
A lo largo de nuestra historia, la experiencia, <strong>for</strong>taleza<br />
y habilidades especiales de los trabajadores extranjeros<br />
y los inmigrantes han sido una extraordinaria ayuda<br />
para construir este país. Somos únicos en el mundo<br />
porque todos los americanos, a excepción de nuestros<br />

Có đến 44% dân cư vùng Bắc Texas là những người Mỹ mới<br />
định cư và trong số đó có 32% là những gia đình không nói<br />
tiếng Anh ở nhà. Vì nhận thức được rằng thông thạo Anh Ngữ<br />
sẽ gia tăng cơ hội thành công về kinh tế và đồng thời giúp<br />
chúng ta hội nhập hoàn toàn vào đời sống ở Hoa Kỳ, Hội DFW<br />
International Commmunity Alliance đã soạn thảo tài liệu chỉ dẫn<br />
này cho quý vị.<br />

Trong suốt quá trình lịch sử, chúng ta đã trông cậy vào khả<br />
năng chuyên môn, sức mạnh và những tài năng đặc biệt của<br />
công nhân ngoại quốc để xây dựng đất nước này. Chúng ta<br />
biết rằng nước Mỹ có nét đặc thù trên thế giới vì tất cả mọi<br />
người Mỹ – trừ những người dân địa phương – đều đến từ<br />
những nhóm di dân. Văn hóa của họ và những thử thách mà<br />
họ vẫn còn đang đối diện trong tiến trình hội nhập là những mô<br />
tả về quốc gia của chúng ta. Những hy vọng, hoài bảo của<br />
họ, lòng tin vững mạnh vào giá trị gia đình, từ đó đã làm giàu<br />
và đem lại sức mạnh cho Mỹ Quốc.<br />
Tài liệu chỉ dẫn này là một hình thức khiêm nhường của chúng<br />
tôi để đền ơn quý vị và những nhà giáo dục đã tìm cách giúp<br />
đỡ quý bạn đạt được những mục đích trên phương diện kinh<br />
tế cũng như hoài bão riêng tư của mình<br />
