Today Maria is starting school. It is her first day. She is going to study English. She is a little nervous. She has many questions in her head. "Can I understand the teacher? Can I make friends?" Maria asks herself.

At 9:00 Maria and the other new students go to a big room. The teachers and the director are in the room, and are smiling. They are happy to meet the new students.

The director introduces all the teachers. Next, the students introduce themselves. Then one of the teachers talks about the schedule for the day. Today all the students are going to take a test. It is an English language test. Maria can understand a little. She looks at the other students. There is a student from China and another from Thailand. There are two students from Ecuador. They are brothers. Maria is from Mexico. Some other students are from Vietnam. Three students are from Japan. There is a student from France and one from Germany. Maria is thinking, "I can learn about many countries and practice my English."

Then the students fill out a registration form. The form asks for their address in the United States, a telephone number, and their address in their home countries. One of the teachers helps Maria with her form.
