Hi, my name is Ehle Shachter and I am a freshman at The College of New Jersey.  I am originally from Canada, so I used to take French pretty seriously, but decided that learning Spanish would be more logical since I now live in the United States.  Eventually, I want to become fluent in Spanish so that I can study abroad in Buenos Aires and so that I can oneday back-pack across South America and visit Spain.  After this, Spanish would definitely be useful and necessary in a career in international studies.
