Linda Dunsmore Alumni Experiences As a native English speaker, my first major foreign language experience began in 8th grade, where I had the option of studying either Spanish or French. I chose Spanish, as I'd always been drawn to the language and Latin American culture, and hoped to one day live in a Spanish speaking country. I studied the language throughout high school, but in the years afterward, it wasn't much of a priority and wasn't something I used on a regular basis. Our language classes were mainly structured around learning grammar and following the textbook. I recognized a lot of the same lack of interest in learning as I saw during my own high school language class days. I was afraid of making mistakes. I learned from my mistakes the first time around.
