Lindsay Saunds
Adjunct Professor of Spanish
Coordinator of Global Education
World Languages
On Faculty Since 2019
All of our World Languages classes at Covenant are going to be looking at Scripture in the target language, or discussing from a Biblical perspective where language comes from, how it is used in the Kingdom, and what it truly means to care for the "foreigner residing among you".
Education
- MA in Spanish, Georgia Southern University
Interests / Specialization
At the college, I love helping students gain the confidence they need to have a simple conversation in Spanish with either a new neighbor here in the US, or while abroad! I do this through high levels of conversation in class, games and engaging activities. In my home, I enjoy reading children's books and singing songs to my 2 littles under the age of 5 and enjoy topics on early-learning second language acquisition.
