Spanish Alumni Spotlights

“I am very passionate about teaching a language to students at the elementary level. I love being able to make a positive impact in students’ lives every day.”

“The best part of teaching by far is the connections that are formed with the students.”

“Since the classes were so hands on with the professors, the quality of my education really prepared me for my career.”

“Professors at Carthage played a big role in how I teach. You can feel their passion while they teach, and you could tell that they care not only about what they teach, but that they care about the students too. I try to do that as well by trying to relate to my students.”

“The research methods and knowledge I gained in my Carthage Spanish and Japanese classes have really helped me as I continue to progress through academia and continue to learn and grow as a student.”

“My combination of international political economy, economics, and Spanish gave me the necessary quantitative and qualitative skills to further grow and expand my experiences through my academic and consulting projects in my current graduate program.

“My goal each day is to make learning fun and exciting by incorporating the arts in my class and to help each student achieve to their highest potential.”

“Joining clubs and a sorority allowed me to get out of my shell, learn more about others, work with diverse groups of people, build community, and have a voice.”
