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.”

“Many of my internships, as well as my current job, were offered to me in part because of my personal connections with my wonderful professors and the rich, extensive classroom opportunities I was able to have.”

“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.

“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.”

“My team is always supportive when I want to learn a new technology or if I have a new idea to solve a problem.”
