As an English pedagogy undergraduate student, I wanted to work on
something related to my field. I dreamed all year long to get a position at a
travel agency guiding tourists throughout Valparaiso hills’. In the same way, I
also wished to get a job at the Pacific Terminal dock, where cruiser ships stopped
by with hundreds of travellers. I tried year after year, but I couldn’t make
it. On my final year at university, I end up translating some emails for a small
company. However, I always had the chance to teach people around me. I chose pedagogy because I enjoy seeing learners
learning. I didn’t try any other career as I didn’t aim to do anything else in
my life.
My experience at university was good. I learned a lot of new things and
met many interesting professors and classmates. Time to time a have contact
with some of my former friends and have a meeting all together!
Today I am teaching some Chilean Spanish and Spanish to foreigners
online. I am also preparing some learning materials for people interested in the way we use
the language hereabouts.



I also wanted to be an english teacher, I think its a cool job. My mother is an english teacher too and I like so much the way she works
ReplyDeleteThat's great! I think it's a very good and interesting profession
ReplyDeleteIs lovely read that you keep in touch with your friends. And now in pandemic times zoom's meeting is a funny way to communicate. Have you done it with your friends?
ReplyDeleteIt is a so interesting career. And I also think that english is a very important, since it is a universal language. What was you favorite subject in the university?

ReplyDeleteTeacher what a good that is teaching Chilean Spanish, since it is very difficult to learn for those who do not speak Spanish.
