My past, present and future: Emily

My name is Emily Vargas and I’m an English and German teacher. I work at
Montessori and English for You. Also, I’m learning Korean because I love that
language. I have two dogs: Micaela and Khalessi, they are really cute.

I studied education in languages at UNT four years ago. I didn’t want to be a teacher
at first, but then I fell in love with this profession. I traveled to the USA in 2016, there I
worked at McDonald's for three months. It was an interesting experience.

Next year, I’m going to live in Lima. I am going to visit many places and meet new
people. I’m also going to apply for a scholarship. I hope it goes well.
