In Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called “satellites kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.
Asians are immigrating (移居) to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the west. In Asia, especially in China, Japan and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result. Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.
The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West. So these children become “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kids”.
Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kids” problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kids” means to grow up in such a country, you know you are different and you can’t make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means to grow up lonely, because your parents are not here.

I live in India and Indian is my mother language. I am a scientist. I learned English very well and now I want to share my experience with other people.
I had my first contact with English when I was six. My dad loved listening to the Beatles（披头士）and he encouraged me to listen to the band. I listened to them every day for the following seven years. In the beginning, I could not understand nothing. But soon I started to understand some words. Later I got a book with the words of all the songs. I read the book many times. I learned many songs by heart. It became my dream to learn English well so that I could understand the Beatles. Today, I can understand the Beatles very clearly. Each time I hear a Beatles song, I am happy and proud.
