Dear classmates!
ReplyDeleteAbout me…
My name is Carolina Duque, I’m from Colombia, I’m 29 years old, I’m marriage and now I’m a new mom.
I came to Unites Estates around four years ago, and I’m here with my husband with a cultural exchange visa.
I’m a baby sitter, I love children, now I take care of a little girl, her name is Violet, she is ten mounts old, and she is very cheerful and active.
I’m attending an online college in a Colombian University: I’m studying Bachelor in English as a Foreign Language, because I want to be an English teacher.
Talking about my hobbies: I like going to the gym, listening to music, washing to movies, for example I prefer independent and horror movies. I Also enjoy sharing time with my husband and traveling.
What I expect of this class?
I have some needs and expectations, for example:
• I need to improve my speaking, because I have several problems of my communication in English language, and that is very important in my future as a teacher.
• I need to improve my writing, because it is important for my development as a college student.
• And finally, the other way, and with others strategies, to learn a lot about the English language, for my progress as a student.
