"When I was 8 years old, I left Afghanistan then we came to Santa Fe. I couldn’t speak any English until I came to Santa Fe.  At Reading Quest my family and I all learned English, did art and played lots of games. Reading Quest is one of the best places to learn English, have fun and make new friends. After I learned English, I started to read! I couldn’t read for a while, but now, since Reading Quest helped me a lot- now I can read almost anything!  I am sure that if you really want to learn new stuff and have lots of fun, Reading Quest is the best place for everyone and for every person!"
