Help please

English is not my second language, but knowing a second language can be beneficial. There are always job offerings for multilingual nurses

Thanks

English is also not my second language but I am second generation to this country and my aunt, whose first language is spanish did great in nursing school and got hired more quickly thanks to her knowledge of a second language!

Thanks Chelsea

English is my second language. Filipino is my native tongue. I took English 101 & 102 as pre-requisites for my program. I have no problem at work. My charting is even better than some of my coworkers who only speak English.

Good luck to you!

Hi everyone,am starting my prerequisites this semester at my local community college.

My question is:

English is my seconds language and I have to take more English within my prerequists classes.i went to high school out of USA and just moved here few years ago . is't hard to become a nurse for people who speak English as a second language ???? Is passing eng 101 and 102 and CRE 101 will qualify me for college level English ? ?Is the RN's that English is their second language could answer my question please.

thanks

I bet you can spell and use correct grammar better than a native English speakers. I speak 3 languages and English is not even my native language and yet English class was easy A of a class. Being multilingual is an advantage not a setback ever.

Well u definitely have to pass those English classes not only for nursing but for you college as well if u ever want to graduate and English is my second language and I did fine in those classes as well as my nursing courses

Thanks everyone,you were a big help
