Good Reasons to Learn Spanish

  1. Increase your employment opportunities
  2. (Sometimes) make more money
  3. Understand other cultures
  4. Gain a new perspective on your own culture
  5. Enhance your English skills
  6. Enhance your abilility to travel in foreign countries
  7. (And now for the reason that most of you are taking this class...) Colleges want to see at least 2 years of the same foreign language on your transcript. (Three for the harder-to-get-into colleges)
  8. In college you may be automatically placed in an intermediate or advanced Spanish class because you passed 2 years. (You will be expected to know a lot!)
