WELCOME TO THE BLOG SESSIONS 2020

ENGLISH 3- BLOG POST 1

 I hope you enjoy this blog experience  this semester! Today you are going to write your autobiography.

My autobiography 

First, I would like to tell you that I was born and grew up in Santiago, so I have lived in this city for a long, long time, except for five years that I lived in Concepción. I studied at Espiritu Santo Elementary School, Liceo de H. de La Florida and Liceo Experimental in Concepción. I have the best memories of those school days. After finishing high school I took the PAA  and I entered the Universidad de Concepción to study Chemistry, but during the first year I realised that I was not good at numbers although science was one of my favourite subjects at school, so I started all over and I went to  Universidad Católica de Valparaíso and got a Bachelor´s degree in English Teaching.

I started working as an English teacher many years after that because I was offered a job that seemed very interesting for me and I worked there for many years. However, I always wanted to return to teaching and luckily I have done it since 2001. I have taught primary, secondary and university students. It has been a great experience! I enjoy facing the daily challenge of making students learn English. Sometimes, it is not an easy task but I love what I do!

Post 2 Why did you choose this career/study programme? Hello everyone! Today we have to think a little bit about the reason why we chose our careers. This question is all about getting to the heart of our motivation. I guess you already know that the teaching career in  Chile  is not associated with  lots of money, so that was not my inspiration when I decided to pursue my career. I have been passionate about teaching from a tender age because I used to teach my younger siblings. They were very good students and I enjoyed helping them to do their school assignments! However, my parents were who influenced my decision, particularly, my dad who supported and contributed with his point of view, his ideas, his loving care …..to his ten children ( a real large family!!! and a extremely hard task for mum and dad). I was so excited the first day I entered the university. I thought I had my future in my hands. At the beginning was tough because I was away ho
