Being a Germanic Studies student has opened my eyes to a world beyond the United States. Learning about other countries and cultures has made me a better person, student, and friend. The classes I take for the major are such a nice combination of history, culture, language, art, film, and literature. The varied topics are always interesting, and I am always excited to go to class. I am blessed to be able to share my love of the German language and culture with students in the German Basic Language Program as a Language Learning Assistant. I provide an additional level of support in the classroom during group work. I love being able to help others while also strengthening my German language skills with frequent review.
