Teachers' travels enhance studies Paris, Madrid, Moscow, Leningrad, Columbia, Marseilles . . a potpourri of cities, a bundle of experiences for DC's 'oreign language teachers. These teachers had many of their raveling recollections still fresh in their minds. They shared nemories with interested students who hoped to dally away a 'ew extra minutes of the long class periods. All of DC's 'oreign language teachers have traveled abroad and brought heir adventurous stories back to their pupils. Traveling in a foreign country for the first time can be iuite a culture shock. Ms. Wendy Wenkstern attended her unior year of college in France. She admitted she grew up md found herself more independent. She saw the French :ulture while her French was constantly improved. Mr. K.Z. Qing says traveling allows many unforgettable cultural and :ducational exchanges. He found it easy to relate his personal :xperiences to the subject matter which helps the students to nderstand with more depth. Mrs. Griffiths, DC,s newest Epanish teacher, is a native Columbian. She moved to the SA when she was twelve years old, so it was not difficult for er to teach her native tongue. She also likes to share her olumbian culture with her sudents. All of this traveling by our foreign language teachers has wrought numerous results back to DCHS. One of the most mportant, is perfecting the usage of that country's language. -earning how to use the proper words at the right time, is iomething the books do not always teach you. Soaking in all of their culture and seeing all of the differences in their ifestyles compared to ours gave them a deeper appreciation 'or our country. All of the foreign language teachers agreed that traveling is me of the best experiences a person could have. Ms. Wenkstern is going as a chaperone to France with Phoenix Qnternational and taking a few DC students. She stresses, 'Traveling abroad is the best education you could receive ibout another country. You mature greatly and expand your nsightf' Mr. King is also traveling abroad this summer with atudents. Some people think that traveling abroad would be oo expensive but once you have gone to a foreign country, he experience will never be forgotten and would be well vorth every penny that was spent.
