My first meeting with Ryan

It was great for me to meet with Ryan Salinas in his house. I knew his mother before because she is my teacher. Ryan is a great "chico." His father gave him an electric scooter as a gift (una patineta eléctrica). His mother and I went to the park to take him a video riding the scooter. He was very excited practicing it in that vast ground that he didn't want to finish. I spoke with him some phrases in Spanish that he needed to repeat in the recording. When we returned to the house, I gave Ryan a test speaking with him in Spanish, and how great was my surprise when I realized that Ryan speaks more Spanish than I imagined.

The next time, I am going to talk more about my experience in this project.
