4. ¿Por qué estudiar el español? Why study Spanish?
Reasons for studying a world language vary. Here are some common ones:
increase job opportunities
travel and talk with people from around the world
learn about people, places, and customs different from my own
be able to read books, listen to music or watch movies made in another language
expand vocabulary
Discuss the reasons and benefits of studying a world language. Ask students what they want to learn this year. If students say they are taking the course just as a requirement, remind them that they want to get the most out of their time this year by focusing on aspects of the language and culture that interest them.
¿Y tú? And you?
