Getting more than what you put in: A Spanish exchange student’s volunteer experience
Maria Gomez Regalado, a translation and music bachelor’s student from the University of Grenada, in Spain, wanted to get involved with the aged because of her grandmother in Spain, who was in need of company. When, as an exchange student at uOttawa during the 2018–2019 academic year, she registered for FLS2791, a course on learning French as a second language through community volunteering, she chose a placement as a French-language friendly visitor at the Garry J. Armstrong long-term care facility.
