Welcome Message

I am so happy to have you in my class.  I hope that you will be as excited about Spanish as I am.  Learning about the culture is an important part of any language and I will try to provide as many opportunities to experience this aspect of the process.  Whether your goal is to become proficient or to learn the basics in speaking, writing, and reading; it is necessary that you practice everything that you learn inside and outside of the classroom.  Make sure that you attend class on a regular basis and that you bring all of your materials.  Regular attendance is a must.
