This year I took advantage of the Language Learning Center. One of the ways it has helped me this semester was preparing for my Talk aboard 1 and 2. During the first talk aboard I was extremely scared so I set up a meeting time with one of the tutors available, once I told her the topic she acted as one of the Spanish speakers so I could practice what to say to and what to expect during the call. Because this helped me so much I did it again before my second talk abroad and it went amazing then also! This center has helped me develop a deeper relationship with the cultural and speaking parts of the Spanish world.
