Hello, I'm Celia Vitorino, specialized teacher. I was born and studied in Lisbon and after finishing my first cycle teaching course I worked in Porto for a year. In 1996 I decided to come and visit Madeira and came to teach on this wonderful island.
In 1997/2000 I specialized in multi-disabilities and started working with children with disabilities. I fell in love with the island and ended up choosing to stay in Madeira. For 8 years I worked as a specialized teacher. I taught pedagogy, pedagogical practices and was the coordinator of the kindergarten assistant course and in 2001 I became the pedagogical director of the training school. Meanwhile, I got married, in 2004 I became a mother for the first time and started working solely as a specialized teacher. In 2009 I became a mother of a girl again and chose to start working at a primary school. In previous years I worked in secondary education. I consider myself a hardworking, upfront and dedicated person.

My name is Marianela and I am from Venezuela. I live on Madeira Island, located off the coast of Portugal, which has natural beauty and captivating landscapes. I'm an arts teacher. I like what I do, because I help my students to find other ways of expressing themselves, to discover their creativity, ways to develop potential, such as imagination, sensitivity and affection. I am an understanding, patient and kind person. I have a great family life. I have 2 children, 28 years old and 22 years old. In my free time I like to go out with my friends and I really enjoy going to the beach to relax and gain new energy. I look forward to learning about relaxation and teaching strategies to use in my profession. Participating in this project will let me know more about other cultures and improve my understanding of the English language, which is weak at this time. See you soon.

Hello everybody. My name is Magaly Ferreira and I come from the island of Madeira (Portugal), an island known as the "Pearl of the Atlantic", where the sea, warm weather, good cuisine and beautiful nature are part of our tourist attractions.
I am a Childhood Educator, I work with children aged 5/6 at a school in Funchal, the capital of the island of Madeira.
I really like my profession, but I admit that I would have liked to have chosen the profession of Hostess, as I love traveling, getting to know cities and new cultures. I am a sociable person, I like interacting with people, I like the beach, cinema and sport. I am motivated to get to know the island of Guadeloupe and take this training to learn relaxation and teaching strategies to be able to apply with my students. I look forward to meeting you so we can exchange ideas, knowledge and new learning.
Goodbye. See you soon Guadalupe.

Hello my dear cource gollegues!

I am looking forward to meet you all in a beautiful Guadeloupe! I am lucky to join Rita's cource again. And I already know we will share a great excperience together in very beautiful surroundings.

I live in Oulu, Finland and I work in elementary school as a class teacher. I do feel I have been doing the right profession for last 20 years, but I really need something extra to keep my motivation and passion up. For me it means international projects as part of my job and many outdoor activities during my freetime. I am really passionate/obsessed in flyfishing and I also do backcoutry snowboarding and kitesurfing. As a father of two sons I have had to give up some things a little, but I am happy that I still get to do things I get so much joy in my life.

Hello, people! I am many things as I have many roles in life. In my opinion, the most important role is to be Rita. To be ME.

I listen to the people what they say and who they are, trying to understand them.

My positive side is to work on my negative sides learning to control my thoughts and emotions. I would love to become a person that Rudyard Kipling is describing in his poem "If..."
