Roswell, GA - April 07, 2009 - Greentree Health Science Academy in Hamilton, Ohio proudly teaches Workplace Spanish® after two of their students assisted EMT personnel at the scene of an accident of non-English speaking Latinos.
Emily Anderson and Emily Ulrich were driving to school when they saw a car swerve and slam into a guardrail right in front of them. The victims were non-English speaking Latino women. Anderson and Ulrich had taken Workplace Spanish® for HealthCare at Greentree Health Science Academy, which proved to be just what was needed. They assisted the EMT to find out the women's vital information and where they were hurt.
Greentree Spanish teacher, Julie Jestice, was absolutely astounded by her students' heroic actions and use of Spanish during the emergency. "What they did was amazing. I have always agreed with the Workplace Spanish® theory but what these high school teenagers did really made me a believer." Jestice enthused. "The traditional Spanish classes at their previous schools only confused them. For our high school medical assistant program, I use the "Workplace Spanish® for HealthCare" book to teach them real life, job-specific language skills. I also added games like "Simon Says" and used role play conversations to help them practice speaking and to remember vocabulary. These girls surprised everyone by doing what the EMS and police with years of experience on the job could not do. With the ever increasing Hispanic population this need is only going to increase. This ability in Spanish will give the girls an advantage during job interviews or prevent them from being downsized."
I'm excited to teach my students a real life skill that will use on the job and in daily life. Emily and Emily have proven publicly that Workplace Spanish® is simple and effective for learning Spanish! I'm thrilled to give the students a skill that is so empowering."
Tom Sutula, Workplace Spanish president, adds "This kind of story shows perfectly what we are trying to achieve with our learning materials and that this way of learning Spanish is very usable. It is wonderful to hear such a great success story." For more information please visit www.workplacespanish.com or e-mail info@workplacespanish.com.
