ABOUT ME :)

                       HELLO EVERYBODY!

My name is Nathalie Betancourt, I’m 23 years 
old, I’m from Cali and I live with my family in a small  town called Golondrinas which is located  northwest of the city near Tres Cruces.  I’m studying Foreign Languages at Univalle because I have always been interested in other cultures, I will love to travel all around the world one day and the most important I would like to be a great teacher, I love children, I think they are the future and what we teach them the first seven years of their lives that determine what they will be as adults. In my case I will be more than happy to do my part to make our society a little better.

About readying… I'm not passionate about reading. Sometimes I read books that catch my attention but they are in Spanish, to be honest I don’t really read in English for fun, I usually read academic texts and articles that are require at the university but who I said before I don’t do it on my own. About writing is totally different, I prefer to write in English than in Spanish, for example: I like to post my status on Facebook in English, when I don’t know any expressions or who to write something, I look for the meaning, most of my comments are in English as well and I enjoy chatting with friends from other counties in order to know more about their cultures and at the same time to improve my English, I think it is a fun way to improve my writing skills.

My expectations with this course are to improve my reading skills that is to understand and enjoy what I read, improve my writing skills and of course enrich my vocabulary.
