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 cruise
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!
In the future, I would love teaching some Chilean
Spanish to foreigners and preparing some learning materials for people
interested in the way how we use the language hereabouts.
Hi Teacher! I think is very good your idea to teaching Chilean Spanish to foreigners cause our slangs and accent could be some difficult to other people of other countries. Regards!
