However, I have been living all my life in a town near Barcelona called Molins de Rei.
My mum used to live in Badalona before meeting my dad and moving here. My dad has lived in el Prat, where he came at the age of 16 after moving all alone from Almeria, and then in Molins.
Since my dad is from Andalucia, in my family, we got used to speaking ins Spanish, so my level of Spanish is higher than my level of Catalan. Despite this, I must say that I have a quite good Catalan. Moreover, I have been studying English in the school since I was 6 and in a language school since I was 12. In fact, I have just gotten the Advances (C1) official certificate last year. I have also studied a little bit of French, but I don't remember a lot.]]> 2021-10-02 14:58:05 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786009222 andrealopezb24 https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786011323 2021-10-02 14:59:41 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786011323 andrealopezb24 https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786041724 I would say that one of my hobbies is to travel, because I really love it, but unfortunately I haven't had a lot of chances to travel abroad. I went to Italy, France and London and I will remember those incredible experiences forever.
Furthermore, I'm not able to think about my biggest passion because I'm interested in a lot of different things. I love reading, I have loved reading since I can remember, it's really special for me because it is a passion that I share with my mum, who motivated me when I was little to taking up lecture.
As almost every person, especially youths, I really enjoy listening to music, I'm keen on pop/rock from the 90s or 2000s.
I also like watching films with friends or family, and I'm always trying to go to the cinema.
Furthermore, I love dancing, I had danced for 13 years, but I had to quit when I started university.
And last but not least, I have recently found that I'm very passionate about cooking, since I started cooking  my own meals and experimenting with new combinations I have discovered that I love it.

I also find it important to be emphatic, a quality that makes it easier to talk to the children and find out how are they feeling. For me, it's also important to be loving, since the affection and good words are really motivating. The organization it's also important, for me, is the most difficult part. If the teacher wants to give a useful lesson and improve the knowledge of students, they must be aware of what they are going to do and why, goals they have.]]> 2021-10-02 15:27:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786045629 andrealopezb24 https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786054494 From this course I expect to acquire some knowledge about teaching English and learn some useful strategies. Considering that I want to be an English teacher, I believe that this course can be really helpful for me. My objectives are also to practice more my English and get used to speak English in a class. Also, I expect to have the chance to know a little my classmates with some activities like the one we did the first day, because it's my first year in this class and I don't know barely anyone.]]> 2021-10-02 15:34:32 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786054494 andrealopezb24 https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786061686 I'm really looking forward to doing a lot of activities with my partners and practise my English. I'm worried about not being up to the class because it has been two years since I left the language school and I didn't get a lot of chances to practice English since then.]]> 2021-10-02 15:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1786061686 andrealopezb24 https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1787429162 If I have to choose, I will choose the teacher that is a role model for me nowadays, the teacher that made me realised I wanted to be an English teacher, her name is Nerea. I remember my euphoria when I saw her getting in the class with all her flash cards, photocopies and games. I used to see English class as an hour of playing and singing songs. She was so sweet when you got to know her, but only if you respected her, on the moment she saw a misbehaviour, or we did something disrespectful she got really mad, but at the end she was quite funny when she got mad, kind like a clown, making a lot of strange faces and exaggerated gesticulation. I get the impression that she knew she was funny doing that, I believe she wanted to make us respect her and show us she was angry, but without scaring us.
I'm very grateful to her because she made me realised you can learn playing and having fun. When I got into the High school I was terrified because I was sure I hadn't learned anything about English during her classes, however, I found out that I knew more than everyone almost everyone in the class.]]> 2021-10-03 14:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/andrealopezb24/366exss9g4wibyp1/wish/1787429162
