Spanish 101

 "Learning a World Language is like riding a bike."  

7th grade Spanish students experienced first hand how learning a world language is like riding a bike. Learning Spanish is a process which requires "training wheels", someone who shows you how to do it, effort and persistence. These life skills were modeled as Tim, Les Mills RPM instructor, showed the 7th grade class how to challenge themselves during the ride and enjoy the results. 

Students were very excited and some of their comments were:

 "I learned that to accomplish something that is challenging, you have to get of your seat and pedal harder"

 "It was hard, but I'm feeling very proud of myself right now"

 "It was a new thing for me and I was scared." 

"It was hard, but I tried it and really enjoyed it. I  guess learning Spanish is like that"
