"Time has passed and I am about to leave and go back to Israel. I have been studing here with you for the last six months. I learned English and I have been enriched from the experience. I highly appreciate the chance that I had to meet you, study with you, and learn a bit about your culture and life. I think of you with a lot of respect. I highly regard the way you took your destiny in your hands and made your choice, and the manner in which you made and continue to make efforts to advance your families. You are doing your best to adjust to the American society and at the same time respect your own culture.
I want to thank the Jewish Family Services for the opportunies that they gave us to improve our English. I want especially to thank Barbara for teaching us patiently and with great care and humor. You are a very special and talented teacher.
I will miss you all and think of you often. I wish you all a wonderful future." - Eitan A., Israel
