GENERAL INFORMATION
Project Description:
Provide a summary that includes the following information:
A. Description of the context where the project was implemented.
• The workshop was implemented at the Language Center of
Risaralda in Pereira, Colombia.
Results:
A. How did you contribute to the successful implementation of the
project?
• After consulting with Guillermo about what he wanted to do, I found
research and pedagogy that matched what he wanted to
accomplish. I also helped provide some of the general structure and
aligning the activities with the objectives. During the workshop I
helped the students and the teachers with their conversational
English and work on informal language that is hard to get from
textbooks.
Impact:
A. How did this experience impact your professional life?
• It helped to reinforce my ideas about what is important in education
and develop my leadership skills.
Other:
A. Include any personal and professional lessons learned from your
experience.
• Personally, I have learned the importance of taking time to enjoy
experiences and people’s company without always worrying about
the clock and to focus more on moments rather than minutes.
Another lesson that was reinforced was to not always rely upon
outside sources to know what a place is like, but to experience it
myself. I also deepened my understanding that people everywhere
want a good life and a good education. Professionally, I learned that
I have a lot to offer and share that can make an impact on other
people.
