Knowing this....what are your expectations for Spanish 5? What do you hope to know by June of 2010?
I am very excited for Spanish V. I hope to be able to carry-on a decent length conversation by June and improve my understanding of the billion tenses Spanish seems to have.
ReplyDeleteI guess my expectations for Spanish 5 are to know enough Spanish to be able to spend a summer or semester in college in Spain. Although I know plenty at the moment, my fluidity and comfort level is lacking. I hope to improve these two factors in Spanish 5.
ReplyDeleteI would like to improve my fluency in Spanish so that I can carry on longer conversations. I would also like to better understand native Spanish speakers, because I currently have trouble doing so when they talk very fast.
