I am still looking for a favorite place but mainly anywhere that makes me feel welcome at home.

What three words would you use to describe yourself?

Responsible, persistent and empathic.

Are there any achievements or qualifications you are proud of and would like to share?

When I look back and see how many students have learned English and how many of them have been able to study abroad following my advice, that makes me extremely proud.

I love working with people from different countries, where everybody contributes with a piece of history, culture, experience, each piece of a perfect puzzle.

What one piece of advice would you give to international students starting their ESL journey at ACLA?

Don’t be afraid of speaking and sharing your ideas, the more you express yourself the faster you will learn the language and make friends as well.
