"I had the
opportunity to study both in Santa Ana, Costa Rica in the summer of 2011 and
then in Buenos Aires, Argentina that following fall semester. In Costa Rica I was able to improve my
language skills through taking classes, explore the country through various
excursions, and spend time in a Costa Rican elementary school. In Argentina I attended a local university
with both international and Argentine students while traveling around the city
in my free time. Both experiences gave
me the chance to really experience how different people and cultures live, and
those new perspectives will be huge assets when I’m teaching in the
future. In addition, it’s impossible to
study abroad and not learn about yourself in the process; these trips were a
great way to grow as a person and I truly believe that I discovered as much
about myself as I did the countries I was visiting."
