Learning Spanish has enriched my life in many ways; I can watch hispanic TV shows without captions, I've made new friends from this class, and I've found a new love and understanding of Spanish music. I feel that I'm more culturally aware than I was before I learned Spanish, and I can now break the language barrier that prevented me from being able to befriend to people who didn't speak English. Learning this language has inspired me to indulge in Hispanic culture and has given me the motivation to learn more languages. In conclusion, learning Spanish has positively impacted my life in a large way.
El español me ayuda a comunicarme mejor con los familiares que viven fuera del país. También puedo viajar a lugares de habla hispana sin problema ahora. Puedo ver programas, escuchar música e incluso escribir historias ahora porque aprendí el idioma mejor.
