My language experience both as a teacher, and a student, has made me the human I am today. Before college, I decided I wanted to teach Spanish because of how much I had come to love it in high school, as well as how it would allow me opportunities to travel in the future. I decided to study abroad in the Dominican Republic, which was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Since then, I have helped foster the love of travelling in my students, by taking them to Costa Rica for 10 days. My hope is that this is one of many trips in the future!
