Hello! My name is Joanna and I am from California from the United States.
I have many frustrations and insecurities about speaking Spanish in front of others or to other people. Every time I speak Spanish, people will respond back to me in English. I've had people reply back to me in a harsh tone with the correct pronunciation along with a rude side comment like "you need to speak better spanish". I get excluded in conversations if it is in Spanish because I am the "non-bilingual" speaker in the room and that it would be "too much to explain" if they tried to speak it to me in Spanish. I will freeze when a native Spanish speaker asks me question or says a comment and I will not know how to respond back to the person.
I want to build confidence, fluency, and enough comprehension in hopes to become a confident, bilingual advocate for my community.
Thank you for taking the time to read my introduction! Let's chat! Hasta lluego!
