Mi nombre es John Torgerson, I am 28 years old. I was born and raised in central California. After I graduated high school I joined the US Army. I served four years active duty, with a little of three years stationed in Hawaii. In my spare time I like to play any and all sports, with basketball being my favorite. I also find enjoyment in working out at the local YMCA. I have been going to KCC for two years now and plan on attending OIT's Radiology program in the fall. what I hope to gain from this class is to get refreshed in the basics of Spanish communication. I took two years of Spanish in high school but that was nearly 12 years ago and have forgotten most of it over the time. I am looking forward to this class this term. Hope everyone has an amazing term!
Hola John! Mucho gusto! I loved my Zumba classes at the YMCA there.

I am originally from outside of Salem and moved here a few years ago for work. I enjoy living in Klamath Falls because it does't rain here very often. I interact with Spanish speaking people often and would like to be able to speak with them on a basic level. I enjoy hiking, being with family, target shooting, or anything with friends. I am looking forward to our class and learning with all of you.
Hola Justin! Yeah, it hardly ever rains in Klamath. Mucho gusto en conocerlo!

Mi nombre es Brandon Lawson. I am originally from Missouri but my career in the active duty Air Force has taken me all over the world. So far my favorite country that I have visited is Japan (I was stationed there for 3 years). I am taking this class as a step towards my degree, but also as a way to get closer to my wife and her culture as she is Mexican with Spanish as her first language. We may be going to visit some of her family soon and it would be nice to hold a conversation while I am there.

My name is Samaijah (rhymes with papaya.) I moved to Klamath Falls from Hawai'i about 6 months ago and got to experience my first winter here. I'm taking this class because Spanish is a popular language and useful to know. I turn 21 in a few months which I'm pretty stoked about, and in my free time I like to play with my dogs and be outdoors.
Hi Samaijah (That rhymes with papaya). Welcome to my class. Wow, winter in Klamath can be pretty hard. It was very difficult to me for being a Brazilian. However, spring and fall are fantastic.

Hello everyone! As you can see above, my name is Jade Huffenberger. I am 25 years old and am halfway done with my Associate of Science degree. I am married, and have an almost 3 year old son named David and am 22 weeks pregnant with a (recently found out) little girl! We decided to name her Violet :) I live in Klamath Falls, and have lived here on and off since 2007.  For fun I like to read, take walks with my son, and discover fun little activities for us to do now that he's becoming more and more curious of the big world around us. I'm excited for the weather to get warmer, but walks in the rain are still fun too! I have lots of family that speaks spanish, so I thought this would be a fun and useful class to take. I'm excited to expand my knowledge in Spanish!
Hi Jade. Welcome to class! Congratulations on your pregnant and I love the name Violet. Is your last name German? That's great you are going to be able to practice your Spanish with your family.
