Sarah, a woman in her mid-seventies from Tel Aviv, immigrated to Brooklyn 21 years ago. Here, she discusses her struggle with the English language:
It’s very hard for me; very hard for me to read. Slowly… and I read mostly Hebrew. All my books… and also speaking.. Because most of the people are Israeli because I have to speak only English on the phone. And when I call the parents… I don’t speak enough English. All my friends are Israeli—I only speak Hebrew.
