I have always wanted to learn Spanish and be able to speak it well with others. When I started learning Spanish I got an interest in the culture and the history, so I decided to go on a study abroad trip to Spain. My teacher Dr. Choi, was also a huge influence on my decision to make Spanish my minor and to go to Spain. My interest in SiS came from Dr. Choi as well. She thought that I would make a great candidate for the program, and told me to put in an application. So far I have enjoyed every moment that I have had learning about the Spanish language, its culture, and its history. I look forward to learning more, because there is always more to learn and room for improvement.
