she was so shy and would cry wherever we took her....we were worried that she had difficulties speaking... we even sent her to some public funded special treatment program to see if she needed medical treatment... But, I must say, to this day, I am so thankful to her 2nd [we changed her preschool within a month] preschool teachers - Rita, Carmen, Mariam, Jenny etc. They were so nice, patient and care... Within a few weeks, my daughter started to speak English, little by little... She became much more active, confident, and happy. Within a year, she became a totally different child and I never worried for a single moment for her language and speech capability again.
