I figure I should learn some Spanish, so I’m starting an online course for Spanish in the workplace.

It starts at the end of the month & shouldn’t have quizzes & exams like the 2 medical terminology courses I completed.

You gotta use it though or it will fade. I studied german for 9 years and forgot almost everything

@SW-User I lost most of the French I learned in Toronto. This is different because once I go back to teaching, my students will most likely be 100% Spanish speakers. Or if I get a job in the health field, Spanish will be a plus. At this point, I know more Spanish than French.

@marsbar maybe let the students teach you while you’re teaching them. Connecting with them might work wonders anyway

@SW-User They’ve taught me a lot over the years, but I need to keep my focus on teaching them English. That’s if I end up teaching again. 😕

SW-User

@marsbar which career is more inviting to you? Teaching or nursing?

@SW-User Who said anything about nursing? 😂

I’ve been teaching since 1998, so teaching will be my first passion.

SW-User

@marsbar oh I thought health field meant nursing. Well,pursue that then. I could never be a teacher,I don’t have the patience for it
