My teacher helped me to learn by giving feedback to all of my assignments and including a link to help with whatever I seemed to be struggling with that week.  I really appreciated this because it showed she payed attention to small errors and cared about me learning and getting things right, and wanted me to improve.  I can’t think of anything that my teacher didn't do.  I think she did an excellent job at teaching me Spanish and making sure I was prepared for my tests and final.

Some things that helped me learn in the course were actually watching and paying attention to the videos while taking notes, asking my teacher when I needed help, and studying my notes on my own time.  This along with having a mindset of being ready to learn helped me be successful in learning the Spanish II curriculum and maintain a good grade throughout the semester.

My experience with learning Spanish in an online class was very positive.  I enjoyed being able to complete my assignments on my own time.  When learning new material, I could move on as soon as I understood the concept, and when I needed more time, I could continue to learn until I understood.  I didn’t have to wait for anyone else to catch up or stress out because I wasn't learning as quickly as others.  My teacher was very helpful and was always there to help me, even more than an in-class teacher would be.  The way I learned was through taking notes and watching videos, and I think the videos given to me explained concepts in a way I could understand better than the usual teachers.  When I didn’t understand something, I could contact my teacher and they could give me more resources to help me learn.  The activities were very helpful and I liked that the types of assignments were consistent every unit, so I knew exactly how to complete the assignment and what was expected from me.  The RLC’s gave me the feel of a regular class with classmates and a teacher I could ask questions when I needed to as they taught with presentations and questions for me to answer.

If I continue to study the Spanish language, I hope to learn more tenses and conjugations so I can speak and understand more of Spanish when talking to someone.  I would also like to learn more verbs, adjectives, and nouns so i can put my thoughts and English sentences into Spanish words and communicate with Spanish-speaking people.  I hope to become more fluent with my pronunciation as well.

I find many things about the Spanish culture exciting.  I would have to say my two favorite parts of Spanish culture that I learned are the “siesta” when people take time off every day to eat and take a nap, along with how important soccer is to the culture.  Another thing I find exciting is the music.  There are so many different types of music and dancing that is popular in Spain and a lot of it is unlike anything we usually listen to in the US.  One more thing I think is exciting is all the architecture.  There are many ancient buildings with lots of history that seem beautiful and i would love to see them in person.

I’ve noticed many differences between the Spanish language and my native language, English.  One of the main and most obvious differences is the conjugating of all verbs depending on the tense and who you’re talking to or about.  Another big difference is how you have to make sure all the verbs and nouns match if they're singular, plural, feminine, or masculine.  You also pronounce words a lot different in Spanish than in English.  In Spanish, you emphasize the second to last syllable in a word unless changed with an accent, but in English there is no rule on how to pronounce every word.  There are also no accents in the English language.  Letters in Spanish are also pronounced differently.  Vowels always sound the same and some consonants like j, ll, and h are pronounced different than how they are pronounced in English.  Another difference is sentence structure.  In Spanish, the adjectives go after the noun.

En España yo comia mucha comida.  Mi comida favorita eran los churros.  Me gustaban las frutas también, como las fresas, la piña, y los limones.  Para mantener la salud yo hacía ejercicio cinco veces a la demand y comía la comida sala. Yo comía muchas frutas y muchos vegetales porque no eran grasosos o salados. iba a un gimnasio a hacer ejercicio porque no tenía una cinta. Para ponerse en forma yo hacía los abdominales también, pero no me gustó. La comida era mi favorita porque las frutas eran muy deliciosas. Para concluir, para mantener la salud yo hacía ejercicio y comía bueno para la salud.

Iba a muchos lugares durante los fines de semana pero mi favorito lugar era la playa.  Mi familia de España y yo siempre íbamos a la playa los sábados.  Nosotros jugábamos el voleibol en la playa.  También veíamos los partidos de fútbol.  Nos gustaba más el equipo de Barcelona.  A veces nosotros íbamos de compras al centro comercial.  No compraba mucho pero mi familia compraban mucho.  También me gustaba dormir a menudo.  Los domingos nosotros asistíamos a la iglesia.

Durante mi viaje en España yo era una estudiante.  Mis clases eran interesantes y fácil.  Yo tenía cinco clases: la clase de español, la clase de matemáticas, la clase de ciencias, la clase de historia, y la clase de música.  La clase de música era mi clase favorita porque me gustaba cantar.

There are many things I learned in Spanish II that I am now able to express.  I now know how to speak in past tense, in both preterite and imperfect tense, as well as when to use on instead of the other.  I’ve learned when and how to use reflexive verbs when I want to talk about things like my morning routine.  I’ve also learned many new adjectives, nouns, and verbs to help me form better sentences that easily get my point across.  With all the things I’ve learned in Spanish II, I can now express many more sentences than I could after just one class of Spanish.
