WLC 400 Major Capstone: Student demonstrate final language proficiency
In order to complete this MLO1: Language and Proficiency . I had to take Span 301 (Com/oral practice), Span 301 S (SL in the Chicano/Latino Community) Span 304 (Intro to Hispanic Literature), Span 305 (Spanish for the professions), Span 365 (The Chicano Narrative), and Span 315 (Intro to translation Span/English).
All these classes were very intense, from which I learned a lot. I got practice and improvement in the four areas such as writing, composition, reading interpretation, oral presentation of a topic through presenting and transmitting message from what was read. Through these classes I had the opportunity to improve my speaking and writing in the Spanish language. Likewise I can put into practice my bilingual skills Spanish and English, learning in a correct way what it meant to translate and interpret in two languages at the same time. This improved my ability to better understand Spanish to English translation. As my knowledge expanded, I became familiar with Hispanic literature such as Ruben Dario, poems such as La Noche Boca Arriba, among others. I also gained the ability to practice reading more closely to be able to interpret what the authors want to convey, as in my Chicano Narrative class where I learned to read more closely and look for the messages that the authors of novels or books really want to convey.
I had the opportunity to practice and practice writing, to make presentations, to translate, to read, to learn the richness of my language.
