Sometimes it is Best to Prepare for Certain Hearings or Interviews in your Native Language
When our client is fluent in English, with Farsi as the language, he first learned and spoke for much of his life in Iran, and he would study and take practice tests in English and get all the questions correct. During the interview, he could not repeatedly answer the same questions he had practiced in English! We were aware that our client was not understanding the questions and the answers because the questions involved many words that our client did not understand. We provided our client with practice tests and practice videos in Farsi, our client's native language. When he prepared that way, he understood the questions and answers of the civics test instead of memorizing the questions and answers without adequately understanding what he was reading in English.
