More Than a Teacher

by Bethany Hertrick


One of my favorite parts of studying abroad has been having Chilean professors teach our Spanish classes. Although each Spanish class was three hours long, many of us looked forward to class because we knew we would have engaging (and sometimes very entertaining) conversations with our professors. Profesora Viviana (pictured above) taught me so much about Chilean culture and gave me the confidence to converse in Spanish with native speakers (a daunting task for a gringa!). All in all, I consider Viviana to be more than just a teacher; she is a dear friend.
