Opis

One of many goals of numerous International Schools is to be culturally, ethnically, and traditionally open/minded. For that reason, most International Schools offer language support to students who speak a different language (L1) within their home than in their school. In our case the school target language is English (L2). As a result of that, various home-language students read and speak fluently within their L1, but found it difficult to write in their L1. For that reason, to overcome their nervousness students concentrated on comic writing.

ExtraOrdinary stories by ExtraOrdinary learner. These are comics written by language learners with different culturally, traditionally and ethnically background. Please enjoy these comics.
