Who I Am And Who I Want To Become?
I have to say that I am a little bit nervous about taking this course online. I have always felt that I am a visual learner and that I need someone in front of me, physically teaching me the content of any subject or any skill that I want to learn. So, I guess I am going to embrace this challenge that I have set in my life and allow the opportunity to learn new skills unknown to me at this point.
To begin this entry of experiences and reflections, I will start by talking a little bit about what our first unit in this course has been.
As a step one, we all had an opportunity to introduce ourselves and talk a little bit about our background. Who are we and what are our projections for the future?
For me, I have to say that the desire of becoming a teacher has always been on my "to do" list. At one point I tried to go for my Education degree, but as you might know, life gets on the way, however, who said that I could only teach children? For the past couple of years, the idea of teaching adult EAL came in such an urgent desire that I finally made the decision this year to enroll myself in the TESL program at the University of Winnipeg and just go for it.
