An Effective <\/strong>Reflection<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through learning Spanish have learned my strengths and weaknesses. I have learned that there are a great number of ups and downs that you have to go through. In this process, I have learned that learning a new language is very difficult. I have started to use Spanish in everyday life and sometimes I catch myself mixing Spanish and English together. I have learned that writing Spanish is also difficult for me to do because many Latin words have accents and I find myself getting confused or even forgetting them at times. I have also learned that I can now formulate whole sentences in Spanish. For example, my roommate, best friend, and I went to a Hispanic restaurant for lunch and I ordered my lunch to the best of my ability in Spanish. I asked the waitress how I did and she said that I did well. So compared to where I was when I started Spanish 101 and now I can see a great amount of growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The link below shows the latest project that I have done in class and it shows the skills that I have cultivated<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exploring Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some things that have helped me gain understanding and knowledge of the Latin cultural perspectives are people. I have very many Latin x friends and colleagues that have shown me and taught me about their cultures. They have let me ask questions and have really helped me learn. Before I met had the great opportunity to ask all these questions I had an idea in my head and after I learned more about the culture the more I learned that everything that I originally thought was wrong. For example, I learned that not all Latin cultures have the same cultural practices, I have one friend who is Dominican and one friend that is Mexican and they have very different cultures and perspectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Engaging in Communities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, I believe that we as a community that we should engage in everyone’s culture to an extent. I believe that we all can experience and appreciate each other’s cultures without appropriating them. I think that it is important to not only engage in other cultures but to most of all respect them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My experience with the Latin x community has always been great because the Latin x people that I do know appreciate that I want to and am willing to learn more about their culture and community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpersonal Communication<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interpersonal communication portion of Spanish 101 was fun in my opinion. I got to see that I was not the only person struggling in the class. I got to practice with others who were practicing something I was and we were able to help each other out. I believe that actually talking to someone else helped me learn and grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentational Speaking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentation speaking was a really bad experience for me. When presenting my Spanish speaking to someone I get the jitters and start sweating. I forget everything that I have learned and go blank. I would say that was the worst part of this class for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentational Writing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With presentational writing believe that I do a lot better than I do speaking. With writing, I can sound out the word and write it. I think that writing in Spanish is one of my strong suits in this class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpretive Listening<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Spanish, it is very hard for me to interpret what others are saying. when someone speaks Spanish to me I get scared and my braid freezes in place. I will start to stutter and go blank. The pressure of me needing to respond back immediately scares me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpretive Reading<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Spanish, I believe that I am good at interpreting what I read in Spanish. Even if I do not understand something I just use context clues to try my best to figure it out. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
