Spanish 3403 was the class that I think impacted me the most in my first two years on campus. It was an intermediate composition course, and was the first time that I was required to write full length essays in Spanish. At the beginning of the course, I seriously doubted my Spanish skills and I worried that I would not be able to keep up with the course. It was very difficult, with multiple timed essays where I had to form my thoughts in Spanish very quickly. However, I am glad that this course pushed me and allowed me to grow and become more successful in the Spanish language. It was the first course where I really realized how much I had learned in Spanish. It allowed me to become aware that I was no longer a beginner speaker, I had become an intermediate Spanish speaker. It was a great course that pushed me to write in ways I never had before in Spanish, and I am grateful for how much it allowed me to grow. I look forward to the remaining courses in my Spanish minor that will push me and help bring me closer to Spanish fluency.
