Course Narrative: This course Span 301s has a purpose of higher education to empower and prepare you to deal with the complexities of a globalized world. To achieve this goal is my ability to learn and use other languages and increase your repertoire of intercultural communication skills. Our aim is to help you develop the ability to function with a high degree of Spanish language and cultural proficiency in Spanish. For this class we had to make a service project for the community which I chose Main Street Middle school in Soledad Ca. This service really helped me out a lot to see what was going on in my community. I had a little trouble but as time went on I saw an improvement with these kids since they started to be more disciplined and eager to play and practice since my service was to be an assistant coach at this school. I learned a lot with this experience, since it is connected to the class in that we can see the problems that exist and how we try to help and improve the community with sports and that you help us the youth that is the future of this country. We help them to be better disciplined, mentally and healthy. Since we instill in them that they can be whatever they want but only that they need effort, perseverance, discipline and desire to be better people.
