Essay On Spanish Class
It was my junior year of high school and things were getting harder in school. I had taken taken Spanish one, and me being being white, had no
knowledge of another language besides English. I took it for the fact that I needed more credits, and a lot of people knew Spanish. I entered
Spanish one, feeling confident and like I can do it, but I realized I was challenged a lot more. I did not know how many points the teacher graded
assignments on. He graded in packets, vocab quizzes, tests and oral presentations. I did not choose the smart decision at the beginning of the
school year and decided to mess up my grade right away. I missed the first assignment and it dropped my grade to a zero percent. It took a long
time to recover from my mistake, and I still had a very low grade by the second month. I tried my best but I knew this subject was not for me. No,
that does not mean I gave up, and I actually tried a lot harder. Even though, I had tried, I had not reached my goal and ended up failing a semester
of Spanish one. I do not like failing, it made me feel not accomplished, slow, and like I had not failed only myself, but my parents as well. I had not
even began to think of the disappoint and the words they would say to me. I remember coming home to show my parents my first progress report. My
dads eyes filled...show more content...
I had disappointed him and that was never my intention. My mother did not say much besides look down and walk away. Usually my father
handled these types of situations with me because he was the strong independent figure I needed at the time. With his fingers knotted in his thin
hair, he speaks with a firm voice " You are grounded, no computer, no phone, or seeing anyone for a while. Go to your room". I looked down with a
disappointed look on myself. I could not believe I had let myself fall that far from my goals. It was in that moment, I had realized my deepest desire to
fix that

Essays: Spanish Language
Essay 1
Does the language you speak reflect your personal and cultural Identity? The United States of America is one of the most diverse countries in the
world and for that reason there are many different languages spoken. Most people who move to this land of opportunities are required to learn the
primary language, English. By learning the language of the new world they have entered, they are slowly giving up the culture and language from
which they came from. People who have trouble learning English and changing according to the American culture are often looked down upon. In
Richard Rodriguez's, "Aria: A Memoir of a Bilingual Childhood" we see how the author struggles to find his public identity and in Gloria AnzaldГєa's,
" How to...show more content...
As she gets older she starts to appreciate her language more, discovering Chicano writers and watching Mexican movies. She starts to feel like she
belongs to a community and sticks up for her language because it is a part of her. It is interesting how AnzaldГєa's suddenly starts writing in Spanish.
According to me she addresses this when she says " and as long as I have to accommodate the English speakers rather than having them accommodate
me, my tongue will be illegitimate." When saying this and writing in the broken way that she has, she is making her language legitimate and relevant.
Her teachers try to take her accent away but she talks about how that would be taking a part of her away.
People are different around their family and in public meaning that they have dual identities. Anzaldua says that bilingual people cannot completely
identify to their native people's culture and they cannot identify to the American culture completely so they develop two identities. Another main idea
in this essay is that even though she is adopting the American culture she does not believe that it requires her to forget her own culture. She shows how
closely tied her language and identity are when she says 'I am my language'.
Both of these essays are about people who move to America at a young age and struggle with finding their public identity and keeping their individual
identity alive. They both slowly lose their Spanish but do

Spanish Class Essay
Learning does not always have to be in a classroom it can be in a small room that is very much unorganized. One activity that is offered by my
school is a Spanish class. First, I find this particular activity very exciting, yet interesting, and different for the schools interests also the student's
and teacher's interests. Second, we get to socialize with the other students and teachers. Last, it is more hands on than any other classes that I
could possibly think of. As can be seen, it is more fun than any other class that I know and can think of. First of all, I find this activity more
enjoyable than any other standard and boring classes that I have. We get to do very fun class activities that I enjoy like going on class trips,
puzzling games, and making giant also colorful piГ±atas. We even got to go to a Spanish speaking restaurant one time and it was so much fun being
there and learn more Spanish. We get to do fun, puzzling, and interesting games which I enjoy the most out of everything we done. Also the class can
socialize freely instead of sitting there bored out of his mind. This class would really help get us ready for a future job like a Spanish translator which
I think could be fun. After all, Spanish is...show more content...
We get to try different foods and fruity, but delicious, yet weird tasting drinks. We get to do awesome coloring sheets. We finally got to do a
piГ±ata and the whole class had to help and it was so fun also exciting. As I have stated, it is more hands on than any other standard class. In
conclusion, Spanish is an activity I enjoy the most out of all my classes. We are free to socialize amongst ourselves instead of sitting and always
being bored in our class. Spanish is more hands on than any standard class that I have. Learning does not have to take place in a standard, yet boring
classroom it can take place in a tiny, unorganized

What I Learn In Spanish
In Spanish, we are learning about what we like to do, but learning this made me think about what we can do. I mean, in lots of countries they can't go
take dance lessons or go swim in a clean pool. We don't think about how much God has gifted us, and that is evident in Spanish. We have computers
and online textbooks, which a lot of other schools don't have. Those help us learn so much faster than other kids can.

Spain Essay
Found across the Atlantic and above Africa is Spain with a growing population of 46.7 million. The country reigned supreme from the 16th to the 19th
century with their predominant religion Christianity. Regardless of their fall from the top, their influence upon world politics still remains. The

resources, the environment vs the economy, etc. and is currently run by Mr. Alfonso Dastis. Spain's policies are mainly understandable while other
policies need improvement.

The fact that Spain uses prejudice decision when checking up on somebody raises the question for other countries, whether this is right or wrong, as
not all countries do this. Therefore, allowing for conflict among other nations ultimately affecting world politics. Global politics such as the economy
affect my country as the economic crisis in 2008–2009 hit Spain especially hard, leading to the unemployment of 27% of Spaniards. Low oil or energy
prices along with low efficiency in corporations' which cripple productivity are typical factors that follow a failing economy. When Spain's economy
hit yet another all–time low back in 2011 they suffered from these factors resulting in lower wages, and high debt not allowing the country to
prosper. Then poor employment rates can have a negative effect on the population as people emigrate out of Spain and according to investopidia.com
2015 shows no promise of the job market improving. As 50,844 people left the country due to there being to many skilled workers than jobs. This
relates to globalization as it makes or breaks the economy on a global scale. Globalization is the process by which a business influences others
internationally. Sure, globalization has given some countries more jobs but not nearly enough and even then, not everyone befits. While globalization
allows for the opportunity it can create an imbalanced relationship between the rich and the poor. Also, if globalization can help Spain
