Would anyone who immigrated to U.S. with school-aged (K-12) child care to contribute to a grad school project?
I'm hoping someone might be willing to share their experiences navigating the school system (public or private) in the United States as an immigrant parent. This interview will ultimately result in a 5 paged double spaced essay, so I'm thinking a 20 minutes of your time should cover more than enough ground to suffice. My main goal here will be to identify any social or cultural gaps that existed between yourself and the school your child attended. I'll ask about any struggles or rewards connected to schooling that you've experienced. I'll also ask a little bit about yourself, your background, and your family.
Your identity of course be 100% anonymous, and I would be happy to share with you a copy of the final paper. Zoom, google voice, or any voice chat option of your choosing works! I promise it will be laid-back and as quick as I can make it. I'm studying to be a middle school teacher. Your time would go a long ways towards helping me be a better teacher for students who have parents who are going through the same things you've gone through. Thank you for your consideration.
