Being a border town in Texas, my students mainly come from Mexico; however, being that we are also a city with a major Army base, I have had students from Africa, Korea, and Japan. Our school is located in a impoverished part of town. Many of our students struggle with reading and writing. My students are English Language Learners and require a lot of linguistic accommodations, which generally forces me to be creative when teaching complex materials such as Poe and Shakespeare.
