00:00:00 - To start a learning story, I tell you that I study in a public school located in Suba.

00:00:13 - The teachers in this school were all excellent professionals.

00:00:18 - They always helped their students with the needed.

00:00:24 - About English classes.

00:00:25 - So I only had three hours a week of English class and I remember that it was one hour on Thursdays and two hours on Saturdays in the morning.

00:00:39 - I remember that the teacher spoke in English, only in English, so she spoke very fast and for me it was very hard to understand her.

00:00:54 - And I remember a lot the test of about birds.

00:01:01 - It was to fill in the table with the missing birds in the different times.

00:01:06 - The truth was that I didn't know much and I decided to look out the window.

everything was bad the teacher told us a vocabulary phrases that would work in case that we weren't abroad and also she told us her stories in the university and in different countries in the end I understood that that she couldn't do much in three hours a week per week but she always tried her best

00:01:48 - And the university experience was too different because all the classes were in English, so well most of them and I had to learn or learn.

00:02:04 - First understanding the teacher was very complicated for me, reading text completely in English was a challenge.

00:02:15 - I remember that I used about three hours to read 10 pages.

00:02:22 - At the first, I was frustrated because I didn't understand and many of my friends were better than me and was terrible for me, but already being in the 9th semester, I understood that nothing is impossible and everything is a process.

00:02:43 - I can't express myself in English, I'm here because I have worked a lot in my learning process and I love it.

00:02:58 - About education in Colombia, education in the public and private sectors in Colombia is too different is crazy because it is not fair that people with fewer resources can access quality education that the tools and opportunities are fewer. I think that we must work on this.

00:03:23 - My dream is to be able to work in public sectors, in public schools of vulnerable people or provide them with all the quality tools for a better learning process. Thank you. I love you until the next time.
