Sandra Yelgy Parada

Prof. Sandra Yelgy Parada

I am a tenured Spanish professor at Los Angeles City College and coordinator of the Study Abroad Program. I was born and raised in El Salvador. I graduated from CSULA with a BA in Spanish and received my Master's degree as well with an emphasis in Language and Literacy. My wise grandmother raised me with a saying that has become the personal mantra for my intention to establish the 花蜜直播app study abroad program: 鈥淲hen you die, the only thing you take with you are your memories of the places you have traveled and your education.鈥
