Volunteer in the Hispanic Community
​
The Department of Spanish partners with local organizations to coordinate volunteer opportunities for students interested in working with the Hispanic community in Winston-Salem. By volunteering in the community, students are able to improve their Spanish-speaking abilities.
Tertulia
​
Come to Smith's Café in ZSR the first Tuesday of the month during the semester from 3:30-4:30 for the tertulia or an informal Spanish conversation hour led by Wake Forest Spanish professors and open to students and faculty with any level of Spanish ability.
The department of Spanish and Italian offers extracurricular activities every semester that give students the opportunity to practice their Spanish outside of class and/or to learn more about Hispanic culture. They can include music, movies, sports, food and more. Check out the calendar on our website for specific dates and times.
Extracurriculars
Love languages? Want to learn how Klingon, Dothraki, Elvish and other languages are created? What makes the North Carolina dialect special? Is "whom" a real thing? How can I learn another language? Take a course in linguistics or even minor for a future in research, translation, language documentation, teaching, computer science and more!

Study Abroad
There is no better way to practice your language skills than by living and studying abroad. Wake Forest offers many programs that can work for all majors including semester and summer programs. Our most popular program allows students to take classes at the Universidad de Salamanca, the oldest university in Spain.
