My student love to learn Spanish and about the culture of Spanish speaking countries. I have provided from my own resources a lot of activities, movies, and dishes to create an authentic language immersion experience to motivate their learning. However, the latest research about learning a second language shows that reading is key. And I love to read as much as teaching them. So, with this project, I want to share my love for reading with books while they improve their language proficiency and build confidence in their reading skills. Eventually, my ultimate goal is to create a library of Free Reading with magazines, articles, books, and others. But, for now, I want to guide them with their first novel because, I am sure soon after, they will be turning pages on their own. Please, help to support my students in their journey to be bilingual.
