4 Hello, my name is Diana Carolina Timana, I am 30 years old and I am from the beautiful
municipality of Tangua Nariño. I work in a company called estrunar that is dedicated to
assembling structures and I am a siso inspector. the competition of the wooden carts the
traditional the sale of milk bread and places to know such as the green lagoon
The experiences I have had are good because I have taken basic courses in the Seine and
they have helped me a little for my work to identify names that know how to be in English. I
have also met people of other nationalities and it has helped me to identify a little what tell
me and know how to interpret

My name is German Esteban Botina. I am 23 years old. I live in the municipality of

Buesaco, a very welcoming municipality full of friendly and hard-working people, a land
where the best coffee in the world is produced and has the best climate in the world.

I work in construction but I stopped working due to very complex health issues, now I am
on a rest and recovery day

My expectations with the subject of English are very high since it is a good opportunity to
migrate to other countries and generate better job opportunities thanks to learning the
language.
