Designed for students interested in developing a functional use of Spanish for the professions (business, education, law, medicine, social work, etc.), from a Hispanic cultural perspective. Students will have an opportunity to practice and develop their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. The Spanish-speaking world will provide the cultural context, and the area of business the content area.
Reflection:
During this class, I had the opportunity to learn about the business world in Hispanic cultures linguistically speaking. Prof. Oliva, taught us terms that are use in the business word everyday. For example, one of the activities that we did during class was an interview. During this interview, we had to use professional terms that describe our strengths and weaknesses. Also, I learned there is an etiquette to follow when doing business with Hispanic corporations.
