Aprender sobre una comunidad distinta a la nuestra nos lanza a un proceso de autoevaluaci\u00f3n e introspecci\u00f3n. Los cursos de espa\u00f1ol en ODU me han permitido conocer las tendencias ling\u00fc\u00edsticas y sociales, los aspectos culturales, religiosos y gastron\u00f3micos que unen y desunen a Am\u00e9rica Latina. La carrera en docencia del idioma espa\u00f1ol ha enriquecido las estrategias de ense\u00f1anza y la visi\u00f3n que ten\u00eda de otros pa\u00edses latinoamericanos.<\/p>\n
Podemos perder todo en la vida, excepto una educaci\u00f3n.<\/strong> La educaci\u00f3n abre puertas, aunque en s\u00ed, no es suficiente para generar un cambio duradero. La educaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s el uso de la voz informada permiten que las personas expresen perspectivas \u00fanicas, sobresalgan en las disciplinas acad\u00e9micas dentro y fuera del aula, y naveguen con \u00e9xito el aprendizaje biling\u00fce. En consecuencia, el contenido adquirido se vuelve significativo en los diversos contextos de los estudiantes. El campo de la ense\u00f1anza de idiomas me permite equipar a mis estudiantes en un futuro, con una voz biling\u00fce que contribuya a su \u00e9xito acad\u00e9mico y facilite su participaci\u00f3n en varias disciplinas.<\/p>\n I was born in Guadalajara, Jalisco. I’m Mexican. To me, learning a new language consists of learning about the people who use it to negotiate meaning, their history, their culture, their struggles, and their expressive art. Learning about a community other than our own provides an opportunity to engage in a process of self-evaluation and introspection. The Spanish courses at ODU have helped me create awareness of linguistic and social trends, cultural, religious, and gastronomic aspects that unite and separate Latin America. This is important to know because Latin American cultures and identities might seem similar, but each one possesses unique attributes which I will convey to my future students. The Spanish and teaching major at ODU has enriched the teaching strategies I previously implemented in my ESL classroom, as well as the vision I had surrounding other Latin American countries outside of Mexico.<\/p>\n We can lose everything in life except an education.<\/strong> Education opens doors, though it is not enough to generate real change by itself. Education and an informed voice enable individuals to express unique perspectives, excel in academic disciplines in and outside of the classroom, and successfully navigate bilingual learning. Consequently, the acquired content becomes significant in the diverse contexts of the students. The field of language teaching allows me to equip my future students with a bilingual voice that contributes to their academic success and facilitates their participation in various disciplines.<\/p>\n !Con\u00f3ceme mejor!
