Story – Pamela

Learning at the Integrated English Civic and Education Program at FOCUS NJ

My name is Pamela Astudillo, I came from Ecuador on February 2014. When I came to the United States it was not easy because I had to learn the language, learn the culture and the American lifestyle.

Enrolling in the Integrated English Civic and Education Program at FOCUS helped me advance in one of my goal, which was to pass the American Citizen Exam and also, to become certified Microsoft Office Specialist. Two month ago, I became an American citizen, a tremendous honor and no easy accomplishment.
