WHY TEACHING? VINTAGE

Teaching bacame into my passion when Ihad just came back from my first big

traveling experince, USA. A place, where ispent more than a year. When i came back

to my beautiful Colombia, I was lost butsuddenly i decided to be a volunteer in an

NGO. There, i fell in love with teaching andthis amazing journey started.

My first teachingexperiences

My first teaching experience was in NGO.Where i felt in love with teaching.

Then, i proceeded to study a bachelor degreein English teaching. After, my 3 semester, i startedworking at a language institude, there i worked for

a year. After that experince teaching, i startedworking at another

language institude, where currently, i am working. Ilove it there! At the same time , i am doing my

practicum at a schoo. Thre i reconfirmed that i lovethisl.

All these experinces have made me grown and feel more passionate each day about what i do!

why a blog?

A task from univerity thatturned into not just being a

task but something thatgathered my passions (teaching

and studying), lived moments(traveling) and teachingexperiences (practicum).

why a blog for 8graders?

Because at my practicum place,8 graders touched my heart.

They made me remember suchbeautiful moments when i wasthat age. And also they gaveme joy and encouraged me to

do something for them.

why a blog about colombia,germany and usa?

Because among the few countries i havevisited, those really made feel in love and

live amazing experiences. Countries where ireally got to know the culture. The

contrast among these countries is great.That is why i want students to know more

about them. I want them to know howdifferent they are, and at the same time, iam remembering great times i had there,and of course they are learning English.

what does "if you want, youwill" mean?

I have traveled but that doesn't mean iam reach or i have money. But i do have astrong believe. That is, if you want, youwill have it. As long you have the best

energies for it, fight for your dreams andturn them into actions.

Just imagine, feel happy imagining, startplanning, fight for what you want and you

for sure will get anything you want!Positive thinking is stronger than

anything else!
