Something Like Home

Summary
     Four Syrian refugees tells us about their story, moving away from their  home to escape from war. All of them mentioned that language is one of the biggest deal when moving to somewhere else.

Meaning of the title
     Although they settled in places away from war, it is still not as nice as living in their home countries in safety. Since it is safe in the new place it is something like their "home", but it is not completely.

Message
     All of the four refugees who were interviewed in the video mentioned that language is a significant matter when you move to a new place because without it, you would never be able to express your feelings and it would be extremely difficult to get a job. Thus, education of language is very important and it should be expanded.

Problem and solution
     Although the people interviewed had chances to learn new languages, not everyone is getting those opportunities in such areas. Therefore, access to education must be expanded. Since it is almost impossible to have enough teachers for all refugees to learn a new language, it is effective to use systems like duolingo.
