"You learn a lot, even in the Spanish language just for yourself, not even to be a teacher, but to be somebody who speaks and has a certain level of proficiency in Spanish. I also learned how to be a more effective educator when it comes to foreign language. My experience has been incredible, and I feel like a much better and more well-equipped educator because of the program."
