How Has Spanish Played a Role in Your Personal and Professional Life?

Spanish is my native tongue. I came to United States at the age of 21 with a bachelor’s degree in Marketing major in business. I grew up in the Dominican Republic. I went back to college and got certified as teacher of Spanish in the State of NJ.
Languages, specially Spanish have become my passion. Teaching it has become my obsession.
