Our Spanish teacher,Ms Rona is a Korean, born and raised in Chicago started learning Spanish since 5 years old. She pretty and have a very sweet voice. Jp agreed too =D hehehe HOR HOR HOR JotaPe xD~ and i Like her too =D

After the 1st lesson, i den noe Spanish is the 3rd most spoken language in the world and the 2nd most international after English. As i always tot French is the 3rd one xD Spanish is also the official language in Spain and in 21 countries in Latin America.
