When learning a foreign language, students often find it helpful — albeit a bit intimidating — to practice with native speakers. These dialogues can help language learners grow their vocabulary, and build a stronger relationship with the communities that speak the language they're studying.
This hour, UVM lecturer Adriana Sanchez-Gutierrez shares how her Spanish students are interviewing Hispanic Vermonters about their lives. Vermont Public will share some of their interviews in the coming weeks.
Our guests:
- Adriana Sánchez-Gutiérrez, lecturer of Spanish at the University of Vermont
- Shane Riley, a UVM biochemistry student studying Spanish in Adriana Sanchez-Gutierrez's class
- Gloria Estela González Zenteno, professor of Luso-Hispanic Studies at Middlebury College
Broadcast live on Tuesday, April 25, 2023, at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
