    Selena Movie Analysis

    In effect, by glossing over Selena’s transition into the Latin American the film Selena ignores her accomplishments in the Latin American market which was not easy to enter. Although the film touches on the obstacles Selena had to overcome to become successful in Latin America it still makes it seem as if Selena was an automatic sensation, particularly in Mexico, where it is known she had difficulty winning people over.

    Selena project

    Different areas that speak Spanish have different dialects. Some of these areas do consider people from other areas to be outsiders. An example would be people from Mexico are not necessarily accepting of people from Puerto Rico because they consider the Puerto Ricans to be outsiders even though they are both Spanish speaking countries.

Selena also had a very confident approach to everything that she did. I believe she was popular because people could relate to her and they viewed her as one of them. Selena also did not allow her popularity to change her, she was still the same person she always was.…

    Vanessa Reyes Preciado: Personal Statement

    Vanessa Reyes Preciado Personal Statement Many often complain that the low salary for teaching makes it an unsuitable career option. But in my opinion, teachers work because they care more about their kids and the impact they hope to have on their lives than they do about the money. It is a teacher's responsibility to teach children on new subjects in a way that is helpful and clear to all of the students while also acting as a positive role model for them. Teachers also have to handle a wide range of learning requirements and behaviors, in addition to long hours, heavy workloads, and hard work evenings. However, I would be more than happy to endure the difficulties that come with being a teacher because I would feel prideful in being able…
