2011/2012 End of Year Survey Spanish Survey

Please think about our year together and answer the following questions honestly and thoughtfully. Your responses will not affect your grade (I promise that I will not even look at your responses until AFTER I turn in your final grade). I am the only person who will see this. Your answers will help me make Spanish better for those who come after you!
