«I want to again thank you for your compassion and patience with myself and all my fellow students for the past 6 months. I can now read the majority of the Spanish correspondence I receive through e-​mail and other documentation from our Mexico Offices, and when our fellow Mexican employees are speaking, I can at least understand most of what they are saying!” — Joe Chemello, Vice Presidient, Walbridge
