INTRODUCE YOURSELF

EOI Puerto del Rosario
63, Secundino Alonso
14th February 2009

Dear Students,

How are you?. I hope you’re fine. I’m writing to you because I‘d like to welcome you to my blog. I hope you like it and take an active part in it with your comments, suggestions, readings and writings and giving me ideas to make this blog a nice place to meet each other and where you can improve your English.

First of all I’d like you to know me better. As you already know my name is Carolina and I’m an English teacher. I love my job because I can learn everyday from each of my students. I’m from Gran Canaria. I have two elder sisters. Their names are Fabiola and María del Mar. My sister Fabiola lives in Tenerife and my sister María lives in Las Palmas where my mum, whose name is Asunción , but everybody calls her Chona also lives. My mother was born in La Oliva, Fuerteventura but she has lived in Gran Canaria for many years. My age is a secret but I have enjoyed every single day in my life.

I’m going to tell you about myself. As you can see from the photo, I have short dark hair and brown eyes. I have a round face and my nose is small. I think I have a bit wide mouth with thin lips. I don’t wear glasses in the photo but I need them to read and drive. I’m medium height and slim.

I think I’m a positive person. I’m extrovert and friendly. I’m quite talkative but I’m a good listener too. I like to think that I’m pretty and elegant but I’m just ordinary-looking.
In my free time I love travelling and reading. But I don’t have much free time, just on holidays, because at week ends I like sitting at home reading and preparing my lessons and thinking about how make this blog nice and exciting to you.

Please write to me soon and tell me about you and your life.

Best wishes,

Carolina.

I have got this email from Norah talking about the snow in London

Hi Carolina,

From LSSE the summer is coming but you would not believe it we had the worstsnow here in Central London for nearly 20 years, Steve the marketing managersaid he remembered this snow when the school first opened, but he is an oldguy!!!

Everyone who wrote in commenting on the last mail enjoyed the paragraph formKavita, she is our Director of Studies so it is a good idea to stay on hergood side as she marks your tests!!!

Kavita has written another paragraph bypopular demand, I am going to ask her, if she has time, to write one everyweek it is great to get an idea of what life is like in our school.

Kavita's diaryOn Monday 2nd February 2009

London was covered in a thick, white, blanket ofsnow. The bus and underground services had stopped due to health and safetyregulations. Even the trains were affected. We are not used to dealing withsnow!! Everyone had difficulty coming to school and when I arrived therewere only 4 Italian students. They felt very proud of themselves and so wejoked about this for a while. "Italians are the best students!!" they cheered, and we all laughed. Later the other students started to arrive. We had a fun lesson because theschool was so small and there were only 20 students. Then one studentsuggested a snowball fight. I agreed and joked "It is the only time you can hit me J and vice versa!" Everyone laughed but no one went out to play. It was too cold!!!!! J If you have any questions for Kavita, please email me first so I can get them answered for you. I am available on norah@lsse.ac.uk.

  1. Dear Carolina,

    My name is Cintia and I am from Brazil but I've lived here in Fuerteventura with my husband and my son since April 2006.
    I'm a nutritionist. I studied in Brazil but I need to valid my certificate to be a nutritionist here in Spain.
    I work in a medical centre with dentists. I like my job but I prefer to make diets and nutritional education.
    I'm going to tell about myself. I've got long and dark hair and brown eyes. I'm not a top model but I don't think I am very ugly. I think I am a positive and friendly person. I'm quite shy but I'm talkative when I am with my family and friends.
    In summertime, I usually go to the beach with my family. My son loves swimming. In my free time, I love going to the cinema.
    I love traveling and knowing different people, culture and food. Because this, I think I will enjoy our travel to London.
    Any way, I must stop writing now.
    Best wishes.

    Cintia Guimaraes

  2. Dear Carolina,
    First of all I would like to give you my congratulation for your blog. I like your idea and I hope that everybody of our class enter and visit your blog in order to make exercises o practice English.
    I am going to tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Maria. I am Spanish and I live in Fuerteventura. I am 25 years old and I studied Tourism at la Laguna University. I have got short wavy brown hair and I am tall about 1,79 cm. My eyes are brown and I wear glasses.
    I consider myself to be a generous, friendly and talkative person. Also I am good at listening and I am an open person too.
    In my free time I like going to the cinema, walking, travelling and reading books. But I don’t have much free time because I am always working.
    Best wishes
