my autobiography


I was born in a dark and cold night in january 9 th in Rivera, Huila. I am the second child in my family. I have a sister who is older and a brother who is younger. I love them so much, they are very sweet to me, they would do anything for me. after my dad got retired my parents decided to move to Paicol. well, they always had a good reason it is a peaceful and pretty town.


my name is Carolina Vargas Guzman, I consider myself as an outgoing person, responsible and lovely. I started school when I was 6 years old. I went to kindergarden through fifth grade at Andres pastrana school in Rivera. while I was 7 years I won an award for academic excellence. as soon as I finished my primary school, after I started my secondary school at Colegio Cooperativo de Paicol. where I also won an award for honor roll and for perfect attendance. at the school I was very good for some subjects like math, chemistry and social studies, I was also very sociable so, that really help to reinforce my communication abilities with others.

as soon as I finished the school I was thinking about what to study, I never thought about being a teacher well, you never know what is going to happen in your life, so I decided to study foreign languages because I consider English as a good point to start for traveling around the world. so far, I have had many good experiences studying english, which have contributed to my personal and professional growing.

In this moment I am taking the last assignment at the university in order to get my bachelor degree. I just want to focus teaching for while and then I would like to continue with my expectations.

  1. To have expectations in life is excellent!! and you could not start with something better than English!! I agree with you, English can open us many doors and even windows around the world in so many fields. I think that being a teacher can be quite demanding sometimes, but as hard as it is, as much you learn and gain from the experience.

  2. It `s a very interesting life story, full of rewarding experiences and with a clear commitment with ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE. But let me provoke you with these questions: How are you doing in your teaching practicum? What sort of questions would you ask yourself about your teaching experiences? To what extent do you feel your English learning process has shaped your developing teaching identity?

  3. -well, I am doing my teaching practicum in fourth grade, in a private school,so it has been exhausted for me. I spend all my weekends preparing classes and looking for material. it has not been what I expected.. it is a hard job with many functions.

    - I always ask myself: Am I a good teacher? Am I doing a good job? Do I really like to teach, to work in a school?

    - I feel that my English learning process has been helpful for me, because I have used many interesting strategies which have been essential to guide my developing teaching identity.
