Hello, my name is Rodrigo Daniel, I’m 21 years old — soon to be 22 — and I want to share a little bit about my life: my past, my present, and especially my future plans. These last few years have been full of learning, doubts, and personal growth. Ever since I was a child, I had always wanted to become a teacher. I looked up to the important figures in my life, and most of them were teachers. I used to admire the way they taught and inspired others, and I dreamed of being like them. That’s why I decided to study at the Escuela Normal. However, little by little, I realized that teaching is not as easy as I thought. It’s a very demanding and risky profession considering what it offers in return. It’s something I’ve thought deeply about for a long time. Still, despite everything, I don’t plan to give up — I still want to be a teacher. Right now, I’m about to start my final year of professional internships. I have many questions and uncertainties, but I’m confident that I’ll find some answers through the experience. I haven’t reached where I want to be yet, but I feel happy with where I am now. I’m enjoying this stage of my life and the free time I have for myself. One thing that gives me a lot of strength is the love that the children give me. I don’t know what I do to deserve their affection and appreciation, but somehow they make me feel special. Sometimes, I even feel like I don’t deserve it, but their smiles and words fill me with the motivation to keep going. I try to stay positive and keep learning every day. In the future, I’d like to be working as a teacher and also running my own business. Of course, getting a stable job in education isn’t easy these days, but I know anything can happen. If I succeed, that would be amazing — and if I don’t, I won’t get discouraged. I’ll keep moving forward no matter what. I would also like to study another degree — something related to programming or technology — but only on Saturdays. Someday, I hope to get married and live a peaceful, happy life — the kind of life most of us dream about. For now, I know the only thing I can do is keep giving my best and not give up. Thank you for listening to a part of my story. Warm greetings!
