Being able to practice my Spanish with other people and watching television in Spanish helped me grow my vocabulary and improve my pronunication.

Aly

I really liked how the class was set up.

Muika

They [group discussions] were very engaging.

Ava

I enjoy how the activities directly prepare you for the quizzes and tests that you’ll take later on within the year. I also enjoyed how we were able to explore different cultures and people groups and pray for them to grow, prosper, and come to Christ.

Harry

I always love learning vocabulary and expanding my knowledge of the culture of different countries. I also found the prompt and detailed feedback on all the assignments very helpful! – Olivia I really enjoyed doing the short story assignment. I waited until the end of the semester, so I was able to use lots of the topics that we learned about. I also really enjoyed the devotions. I liked to see what was going on in other parts of the Spanish speaking world.

Grace

One of my favorite things in this class was the cultural videos because I learned new things watching them. I also liked the vocabulary activities provided as they were very helpful.
