Course narrative
This class was very helpful for me in being more informed about the possible opportunities one has in the work place after graduating from college, as a teacher, as an interpreter, working in the government, in a hospital, in an airplane agency, etc. This class is also like a tour of the university, as we learn a taste of everything we will have in this degree of Spanish and Hispanic American Culture. An introduction to all the subjects that help us form within the career, we also have the opportunity to meet other students who are now professionals and are working but were previously in our place as students. Through their experiences and testimonies, they give us the opportunity to choose where we go with this degree, and not lose hope or enthusiasm on the path of study. In addition, with this class I had the opportunity to get to know different schools that I could have applied to for a master's degree or the possibility of a teacher's credential. This class is a tour of the possibilities and options of studying this career, it is full of information for your benefit. Also in this class I receive help to create resume and personal statement.
