Over the time that I have learned English, I have gained many new knowledge and understanding of the English language. I have learned about sentence structures, plot diagrams, Socratic seminar, and vocabulary, and essay writings, elements of literature, symbolism, poems, and double entry notes.

The third language conflict makes the appearance when Antonio goes to school, where English is the medium of instruction.

For centuries, American literature has served as indication on the power of words to articulate encouragement for change by creating a call to action.
