An interesting new book/e-book that helps those coming to the US is "What Foreigners Need To Know About America From A To Z: How to understand crazy American culture, people, government, business, language and more.” It paints a revealing picture of America for those foreigners who will benefit from a better understanding. Endorsed worldwide by ambassadors, educators, and editors, it also identifies foreigners who became successful in the US and how they contributed to our society. It has a chapter that explains how to be accepted to an American university and cope with our new culture. Half of foreign students stay here after graduation. It has four chapters that explain how US businesses operate, a must for those who will work for an American firm or with a foreign firm in the US environment. It also has chapters that identify the most common English grammar and speech problems foreigners have and tips for easily overcoming them. It also identifies differences international students will find in colleges here. However, most struggle in their efforts and need guidance from concerned Americans and books like this to extend a cultural helping hand so we all have a win-win situation. www.AmericaAtoZ.com

Excellent! I completed my high school in my native land and a bachelor's and master's in the U.S. The disciplined structured approach that I grew up with when blended with the more open adhoc system here served me well.
