...perspectives. Learning a second (or third, or...) language is not only a way to learn about a different culture and alternative ways for social interactions but can really broaden the horizon.

...University, I thought teaching would be a natural extension of my inner (and, to the occasional dismay of friends, outer) thespian. When I stood in front of my first classroom, teaching English during a sweltering Providence summer to ten eight year-olds, I realized that not even my loudest volume could bring order. And so, I began to learn what my teachers throughout schooling had implicitly taught me: listening to and building relationships with students is...
