In this course, I learned about all of the Major Learning Outcomes for the Spanish Language and Hispanic Cultures Bachelor of Arts degree. I had the opportunity to talk to alumni and people who are using their language degrees. This was a great opportunity to learn about potential careers and graduate programs for once I graduate. This class also helped me learn about all of the course requirements and to develop an Individual Learning Plan to complete those courses. In this class, I also had the opportunity to begin working on this ePortfolio and learning about how technology can be beneficial in our education and future careers. This class also gave us the opportunity to write a statement of purpose as to why we decided to study languages and create a resume that we can use professionally. Thanks to this class, I feel more confident about the work that I will be doing in this major and the work that I can accomplish once I graduate.
Below, I have attached the personal statement that I wrote for this class explain why I chose Spanish as one of my majors.
