Since good language promotes strong literacy, then it is only logical for language deficiencies to cause problems with literacy.

Kothari describes a time visiting India, where she longed to be like her cousins. Though Kothari never says America is cleaner than India; it is easy to surmise because of a reference to a trip back home. She describes everything eaten there as closely monitored and cleaned thoroughly because of amoebic dysentery and other unexplained ailments (Kothari 948). Her mother guides her safely through the Indian culture and food preparation. But her want to be included resulted in the consumption of the food her mom kept her safe from, ending with sickness (vomiting) thus being teased by her cousins. Through Kothari’s description of all things within her Indian culture, the reader can envision Kothari’s longing for it. She feels safe with her native food; it is her comfort food except when it comes to cooking or preparing it. Kothari makes it clear that she is unable to reproduce the simple recipes of her family correctly; a more complicated dish would take her six hours and three phone calls

During the summer of 2012, I went on a family holiday to India where I was able to willingly help local children, those who are unfortunate to gain an education, with basic numeracy and literacy skills. This is a personal accomplishment, as I was able to help and care for others, providing them with assurance to aim higher and excel their self-belief.

I listen not only to the more obvious content messages but also to the relational messages that I (and others) send, and I respond to the relational messages of others to increase meaningful interaction.

'Beyond us, irritations heal into arguments ' The little things that individuals hold within them should always be shared,

1. What were the common characteristics of all Indian cultures in the New World, and what were the important differences among them?

Literacy, whether it is reading, writing, or listening, can mean many different things to people. Each form can impact everyone immensely. In 2016 I had a literacy encounter that made a lasting impact on me. That summer I began babysitting John, a precious five-year-old boy, for the sole purpose of building up my bank account. Since both of John’s parents worked long hours at the hospital, John did not get to spend as much quality time with them as he or they would have liked. I felt badly for John, so I made it my goal that the time I spent with him would be meaningful and memorable.

What I learned most through Albany field trip is about history. First, we went to Iroquois Indian Museum. I haven’t studied Native American in my home country. One of the tribes is called Iriquois Indian. When I looked around the museum, I thought its culture has some similarities with Japanese culture for the following reasons. First, I was surprised that there were a lot of ornaments of turtle or woman in the museum and there is a tale about woman and turtle. Japanese also respect the turtle because it regards as a symbol of longevity. The ornament of woman represents for fertility. In the tale that Iriquois people believe, they think the turtle helps skywoman, who fell from the sky, and made the Earth. So women are powerful than men. As

Obtaining even the smallest ounce of new knowledge can completely change one’s opinion on something. When Thoreau is in jail, he shares his cell with Bailey. During their time in the cell together, Thoreau opens Bailey up to a bunch of new possibilities just by sharing what he knows. At one point Thoreau exclaims, “Everything’s wrong-- when a man only thinks about himself” (Lawrence and Lee 108). This shows how we need, maybe even crave, interactions with other humans. We can truly learn from the success and failure of others but that is only feasible if we share our encounters with each other. The exchange of knowledge is all a person needs to realize something about themselves. This cannot be achieved through

In the article, “Communication: Its Blocking and Its Facilitation” by Carl R, Rogers, a psychotherapist who wrote a book without being a teacher of writing, asserted that psychotherapy will create guidance towards failures of communication and can improve communication between people. Rogers declared that the foremost barrier to be beneficial towards the interpersonal communication is one examining from their perspective. But the barrier can be eliminated if the people stop judging other people’s ideas , opinions without analyzing the other person’s point of view meaning putting themselves in a person 's situation. In fact, he briefly acknowledges the complication of communication towards the people but also provides diverse ways to improve our communication, mainly when contributors are known to support their role. Also, valor is known to be listening compassionately, meaning one extensive towards the risks of changing. In this issue, Rogers elucidates the indifference towards caring about the third party that can improve the adversary achieving mutual understanding by encouraging them as partners to resolve problems, instead of being foes and holding a grudge. Moreover, as social scientist, there is

I did this to ensure understanding of the patient’s background. The patient told me that there are a few traditions that occur in this culture; such as root and huckleberry digging, eating Indian celery, drinking Indian Tea for good health when they have a cold, using ghost nets to go fishing, and praying for wellness. After understanding my patient’s background; I started directing questions that revolved around the six components of the Giger and Davidhizar model. The first concept, was communication. I asked my patient, how their culture predominately communicated with each other? My patient responded, by telling me that verbal communication was the biggest way they communicate. Story-telling, playing drums, and dancing were other aspects to communication method; story telling engrained lessons into her and her siblings heads. The second concept is time; I observed and directly asked the patient how their culture viewed time. She responded by notifying me that her culture is very much in the present, however, story-telling focuses on the past. My patient also told me that being present with family was another huge aspect of her culture. As demonstrated by the amount of family members that visited her throughout the two days, that I took care of her. For the third concept of space, I observed the way in which my patient and their family interacted with each other. They interacted with each other closely; very similar to the way in which

Geert Hofstede developed the widely applied Hofstede’s cultural dimensions, which mainly focuses on how different countries with different cultural backgrounds handle different anthropological problems that occur in cross-cultural communication (Hofstede 1980). The first five Hofstede’s dimensions will be discussed in following paragraphs. It should be clear that there is no good and bad between two elements in each dimension since every culture has its unique features and ways to function.
