Reflection: In this service learning course, it was taught in Spanish for the Spanish majors. This service learning course required us to complete 30 hours of volunteer service at any Spanish community place where we would be needed. I chose El Sausal Middle because they have an AVID program which for me was what stood out. As being an AVID student throught out my middle and high school years I was very passionate about AVID. AVID is a program focused for students that are first generation students and their goal is to get them to college by preparing them. I completed 70+ hours throughout the semester. I was very sad after being done with my hours that I got hired as an AVID tutor. In the two presentations below I did with fellow classmates you can see my work and our objectives as well as a short relflection of my work.
