ADAPTING TO A NEW COUNTRY Mu Jirasupakorn emigrated from Thailand to the U.S. and was able to find a position in the field of technology fairly quickly. He felt frustrated, however, at not being able to express himself fully, so he came to the Literacy Council for help in reading and writing. Working with Volunteer Tutor Melina Micich, Mu reached his goal of improving his English skills and also became a U.S. Citizen.
