An introduction to this blog

Dear reader,

This space will be devoted to sharing my work, mainly academic papers, for the English for Academic Purposes class at Universidad CAECE. I will be writing about English language teaching (ELT), materials design and ELT management. While doing this, I will be developing my English for academic purposes (EAP) skills. All in all, I hope this blog will serve as a means to an end: it will help me work on my thinking skills and to share my ideas with the world.

I have been a teacher of English for 10 years. I graduated from ISP Dr Joaquín V. González in 2005 and after a specialization course in Phonetics, I decided to focus on building up my career.
My job never ceases to bring me satisfactions. Actually, it is more than my job, it is an essential part of who I am. I could not imagine doing anything else.

But apart from joy, it also brings me challenges, and in order to meet them I believe that I should learn more, and open my mind to new ideas. As part of this quest to impove, this year I decided to go back to the (virtual) classroom and undertake a "Licenciatura en la Enseñanza de Inglés" at CAECE. I have learnt a lot so far and I expect to learn even more.

I look forward to learning, writing, and, most importantly, sharing!
