The same students also demonstrate high levels of motivation to learn and acquire Spanish and sometimes other languages in addition to Spanish. This study is a description of what several highly motivated students do to learn and acquire Spanish. These students attain high levels of proficiency on the ACTFL proficiency scale as compared to average students of Spanish.
