Answer:

- Mis conocimientos sobre el idioma Inglés son básicos, lo aprendido en la escuela y

en un curso que hice, el cual fue certificado en A1 y A2.

- Era mi materia preferida, estaba activo siempre en las clases y eso me llamo la

atención, fui aprendiendo cosas nuevas y entre más aprendía más amaba el Inglés.

Por eso decidí cursar esta carrera para mi vida personal y profesional.

- Mis expectativas son aprender temas, reglas, aprender a redactor textos, saber

escuchar y saber hablar. Quiero formarme en un alto nivel para ser uno de los

mejores Educadores del país y por qué no del mundo.
