In what ways did the Spanish M.A. program prepare you for what you do today?
The M.A. program gave me the experience I needed in the classroom, and exposed me
to the most efficient research on Language Acquisition. This helped me to prepare
engaging and effective lessons that have helped my students acquire language at their
respective levels.
