In lower, middle and upper school, I took both French and Spanish as apart of the college-prep curriculum taught at my school. By the time I got to college, I had taken over four years of Spanish, and I knew that I wanted to increase my knowledge of this language because it would be most applicable in the nursing field. In this course, we learned about the basics of Spanish, but also, we learned about the Spanish culture. I loved Professora Sanchez’s class because instead of just lecturing, she was very interactive and passionate about us learning the language and the culture. At the end of the semester, Professora Sanchez divided the class into partners, and we had to create a presentation about a significant holiday in a Spanish-speaking country. I have attached the presentation that I completed on the country of Costa Rica and the celebration of Del Día de la Independencia or Independence Day.
