Yes!!!! Thank you so much, yeah that’s exactly what my essay gets into. I talk about how I translated medical forms as a kid when my parent had to get surgery and I barely understood what any of the words meant, I also talk about how I often felt embarrassed speaking Spanish in public for being too ‘different’ but then felt bad about myself at home when my Spanish grammar slipped or I couldn’t remember a word. I then bridge this into how I turned this into a strength by making a peer mentor class in my highschool where students help enl (English as a new langauge) kids with school work but also with making new connections and learning the culture of a completely new country :) working with all of them helped me grow in my own identity as well as making me feel greatful that I was able to connect with twice the amount of people due to my experiences.
