As you've seen, Moises experiences both external and internal conflicts, caused by his immersion into an all-English-speaking school. The external conflict (being teased and not understanding the lessons) creates his internal conflict (wondering if he should give up trying to learn). These conflicts are plot elements that drive his story.

Which conflict—internal or external—do you think is more difficult for Moises to resolve? Why do you think so?
