Perceptive Professor Sets Student on Right Course
Starting at South as a biomedical sciences major, 索菲娅斯隆 also took classes in Spanish because she’d enjoyed it in high school. 一天，她的西班牙语教授坐了下来 her down and said, “You’re really good at Spanish. 你想过换工作吗?”
Sloan had never told her professor about her growing realization that biomedical sciences 不合适. Somehow, the professor picked up on it. 后来转到语言系 给了她一份家教的工作. She liked it so much that she decided to teach Spanish as a career, preferably at the university level.
“那份工作太棒了，”她说. “It really showed me that I enjoy teaching. It showed me what I wanted to do with my life.”
你可以看出来 that the professors see us as more than just faces in a classroom.”
It also heightened her already-high respect for the faculty at South. 你可以看出来 that the professors see us as more than just faces in a classroom. 他们肯定 能感知到我们擅长什么吗.”
Sloan won several scholarships, including the Margaret Pol Stock Award for excellence in two languages (her second is French), and was president of South’s chapter of the Phi Sigma Iota international foreign language honor society. 她特别感激 that scholarships are available to allow language majors to study abroad. “有 so many different opportunities for success within the department.”
The COVID-19 pandemic ended up disrupting study abroad trips for students across the country, including Sloan’s planned journey to Spain. 在部门的帮助下，她 found another way to test her Spanish skills while picking up idioms and other quirks 从母语者那里学来的. “I’m doing a virtual study-abroad program,” she said, “and we have a whole unit just on slang. 所以我很兴奋.”
