A Turning Point of My Life

A turning point of my life was a few years ago, when I came to the U.S.A. Before that moment my family and I lived in Poland in a small city near Krakow. My family and I lived there with my parents in a big house, and we had a lot of land around our possession.Our house was always full of children because my sister and brothers with their family often visited us. Our children use to spend a lot of time together and had a lot of fun. Our great family always helped each other,and celebrate all holidays together. When I read the story " Home" my magnificent remembrance returned. Would we also sometimes sit outside between the nice landscape and talked about everything. The lovely ages stayed profound in my heard. After coming here everything in my life changed. In the beginning everything was foreign and difficult. Every day we met many problems, and needed much help with them, because we don't know the English language enough, but slowly step buy step the hard times become better. We bought a house, our children started to go to American schools, and now the time came , when I can do something for myself. I decided to learn English language in order to fit in better in the U.S., and find good job. Although I organized my life here, I often remember where I lived before. I miss the place in Poland, but I miss my family the most. During reading "Home", I liked that the family could solve their problems, and don't have to change their life, because from my own experience, I know that it is very difficult.

I believe that we all miss our own town and family that we left behind and I feel your pain. I really like your story.
I suggest you try to avoid use contractions when write a paragraph . "Every day we met many problems, and needed much help with them, because we don't know the..." also " I liked that the family could solve their problems, and don't have to change their life,.."

I think your ideas are clear and you have enough examples to support
your topic sentence.

Hi Wanda! I enjoyed reading your paragraph. Your ideas are very close to me. I also miss my family and my home. It is always difficult to begin a new life in a new country. We face some problems every day, but it seems to me you are strong enough to overcome any life difficulties!
