COLEGIO SANTO DOMINGO DE GUZMÁN ENGLISH COSDO

INTODUCE YOURSELF

My name is Carlos Andrés Rojas Corrales, I am an English teacher, I was born in Medellin on November  19th of 1980. 

My family is composed by my wife, her name is Monica, she is an English teacher, she has been working at Cosdo for seven years. She is gorgeous and a very  special woman. She supports me in different situations.

My son’s name is Isaac, he is seven years old, he studies at Corazonista School, he is in third grade. He is very smart, respectful and loving. He loves travelling and visiting different places, by the way last year he went to Argentina and Chile, there he met the statue of Mafalda, one of his favorite comics to read.

I grew up in Cartagena because when I was five years old my parents moved there.

In Cartagena I lived for more than 12 years and when I was studying  there  began my love for English because I studied at Colombo Americano and I was very  good at school.

When I was seventeen I decided to study translation at University of Antioquia.

At this university I only studied 2 semesters, I got bored because of the strikes. For that reason I quit that university and I began studying degree in language teaching at U.P.B

I have worked in different places such as Santo Domingo de Guzman school, Uniminuto and Pascual Bravo.

I don’t have much free time because I work from Monday to Saturday but the most important for me is to share with my family. I like to read, play video games and travelling. I have been in different parts of Colombia but my favorite place is Baru.

This is one of sites of tourist development of Cartagena de Indias. Actually, it has beautiful white sandy beaches, clear waters, channels surrounded by manglars and multicolored corals. You may arrive by land crossing the Canal del Dique at Pasacaballos  or by sea crossing the Bay of Cartagena.

I have some dreams for example going to England because I want to practice my English there, visiting different places such as: castles, gardens and know its culture.

Another dream is going with my children to Disney world, because I think it is a unique experience enjoying the different sites there.

Finally one of my passions is the soccer so I would like to have the experience in going to a world cup, it would be easier next year in Brazil since it is close and cheap.

And  why don't you introduce yourself?
