Interpersonal Communication Reflection
Throughout this year, I have worked to further my spanish vocabulary so I am able to communicate better with those of Spanish heritage. It is obvious that through the year I have improved in all aspects of my Spanish vocabulary and usage.

In the future, I will be able to compare things using Spanish in the classroom setting or if I visit a Spanish speaking country. Also, if I ever have to go to an emergency room in another country, I will know what to expect upon arrival. In the presentational speaking module I chose, I was instructed to give my opinion on the art and music classes in the schooling system. In this project I wrote about how I feel about the arts in the schooling system and how they are just as important as the math and sciences. I can use these skills learned to argue my opinion in the future. For the interpretive listening module, I was instructed to watch a video about a singer canceling his concert and the audiences reactions. I received a good grade on this assignment which shows that I can watch a video and understand what is happening in it. It was difficult to understand the language being spoken at full speed, but I was able to understand it enough to write the response. This assignment was good practice for the future when I will have to associate with people speaking at a faster pace than I am comfortable with. Overall, I have become a well rounded Spanish speaking student that can listen to, speak, and write Spanish
