When I came to this country I didn't know English. I went to IS 61 and I learned a little English. Then I came to Pan American. In one year I learned a lot. Ms. Nunez, Ms. Monegro and Mr. Johnson helped me. They maKe us write and rewrite and present our work. We talk a lot in class to practice our English. I passed the Global and Algebra Regents. I'm only in 10th grade and I am in AP Spanish with Ms. Barajas. she teaches us all about the classics from all of our different countries. It helps me when I have to write about literature in my English class. I heard that this school was bad before, but now it's the best school. There are college trips and the college fair is in November 10. A lot of colleges will come to speak to us. John Jay College sends college students every Friday to help the 10th graders and to mentor us. I know what college I want to go to. Ms. Torres is our college counselor and she helps all of us. I want to be a teacher and work here in the future. I love PAIHS.
