Where can I find community adult English lesson classes for my Indonesian wife in the Portland Oregon area?
My wife is coming to Portland soon. She is from Indonesia, and I would like to enroll her in an adult community English class for immigrants (English as a second language) to help her become fluent with English. She is not coming as a college student.

yes whenever you travel to a different country from your own you will have cross cultural contact. for example i live in massachusetts and when i got to montreal or mexico they speak a different language and have different lifestyles. i enjoy it because i love variety and i love a change. the city i live in has like a million ccutltures so it kind of hard not to be around a million cultures everyday. for instance im watching spanish cartoons cooking pho southeast asian soup and speaking proper english all simultanesouly.

Yes, best way is to try to learn the lenguage, go out to shopping places, night clubs, or do what you like doing, you'll need to adjust to the new food, customs, traditions etc. you'll also feel homesick, don't worry that's normal, takes between 2mos. up to a year to adjust to the new changes.

i totally understand what you're goin through....d best thing would be to learn the language..that would help you a lot i'm a student in romania and it was very hard for me to adjust especially the first month..esp because i'm black and in eastern europe black people are very rare..thankfully romania is not a hateful and racist country don't worry,you'll be fine....it gets easier with time...

When I visited the Philippines I was blown away by how different it was. The first thing I noticed was the poverty. Streets were unclean, people were begging, traffic was everywhere. I felt a bit sick as we left the airport, so I closed my eyes a bit because I was trying to get the images out of my head of what I saw. As we got farther away from the major cities, the air felt a bit more cleaner, and the areas got greener. There definitely was a language barrier. I had no idea how to speak the two main languages - tagalog and ilocano. Luckily, most of all my relatives spoke english, so I was able to get around. The way of life in the Philippines is definitely different from that of America. Schools get out earlier, people wake up earlier, shops are on streets, right outside a house, in urban and rural areas. We had to pay for our own toilet paper as well. When we went back in the busier cities, I had to get used to being up and close to everyone because of how crowded it was. Shoulder to shoulder. It made me uncomfortable because of how I was used to having room walking around. I had to change a few habits when staying for a few weeks in the Philippines, mostly because that I couldn't speak the language. I could not go around as much as I pleased, had to stay close to my grandmother's home. Had to get used to doing some farm work, paying to use the internet in the cafes, and had to learn to get a bit dirty. I was used to using the shower at least once a day, but instead went like 3 times a week.
