When it comes to adapting to everyday
life in a new country, immigrants are still left to their own
devices.
Welcome to America: The Complete Guide
for Immigrants fills
the information void for people new to the US. Although it was
written
primarily
for
immigrants,
we are
sure that international students, businesspeople, and others
who come to the US for extended periods of time will also find
it useful because there are very few books on this subject
and none of them covers all the issues important to new American
residents
in such details.
The book explains how to:
• rent an apartment
•
buy a car
•
open a bank account
•
establish a credit history
•
find a job
•
pay taxes
•
control your income and expenses
•
get an education
•
buy a home
•
and much more
In addition to being an excellent reference source for newcomers
in the US, Welcome to America also gives them an opportunity
to practice reading and understanding English. Russian speakers
will find the book's unique bilingual format especially valuable.
It has English text and its Russian translation on opposite pages.
“Finding that she could not get on with her history
without such a knowledge of Latin as would enable her to read the
medieval documents with ease, Betty had set about learning the
classical language. She troubled to acquire only the elements of
grammar and then started, with a translation by her side, to read
the authors that interested her. It is a very good method of
learning a language and I have often wondered that it is not used in
schools. It saves all the endless turning over of dictionaries and
the fumbling search for meaning. After nine months Betty could read
Latin as fluently as most of us can read French.”
W. Somerset Maugham «The
Human Element»
