-During an interview you may find that you struggle with using the “right” words when talking to the employer.

-We thought that it was interesting that he taught himself the American language and usage of proper grammar/punctuation. He used the dictionary as a teacher and became intrigued with learning the words and definitions of modern English. He described the dictionary as a "mini-encyclopedia," since it gives information in the definitions.

Quickwrite 9/6

I think the purpose of reading Django Paris' work was to learn about the African American Language and how it is a type of literacy and has its own unique grammatical structure. This reading relates to our course and our first paper because it helps us further understand the definition of literacy that we had just learned.
