At Wheaton College I studied Education and Spanish. I enjoyed the small classroom setting and the quality of the instruction; however, what impacted me the most were the personal relationships with the professors who were supportive and encouraging. As a result, one memorable project was when I collaborated with a Spanish professor closely on a research paper that we presented at a conference. This paper was published in spring 2012 in the Journal of Christianity and Foreign Languages (JCFL).I was raised in Tepic, Nayarit Mexico in a missionary family whose work is Bible translation. This experience introduced me to the love of different cultures and the study of foreign languages. I hope to share this love for learning with others as I grow as a teacher. You can get more information about my parents work by going to this website www.rothtranslation.org.I teach Spanish because I enjoy interacting with children and seeing them learn. It is always encouraging to see students using the language they have studied and worked hard to learn. I hope to make a positive difference in their lives and in their future. My background in studying Spanish and Education, Intercultural studies with TESOL, as well as my upbringing in Mexico helps me to be a good candidate for teaching students to speak Spanish and English.Diana Little
