“Alfonso Villaseñor is a dynamic, entertaining, and resourceful instructor. You leave this class feeling like you have the tools to make solid interpreting choices when rendering Mexican slang and taboo language. It was very insightful as someone who comes from a different cultural background.”
“The class with Alfonso Villaseñor was excellent. Profanity comes up in open court once in a while and knowing how to deal with those scenarios gives us the upper hand. Thank you for providing this class, I wouldn’t mind a second class on this subject.”
