My first job was challenging. When my boss spoke to me I didn’t understand, and he got angry with me. I decided to study at Carlos Rosario School and now I feel proud of myself. I am in Level 4. My teacher is Christina. She is an excellent teacher because she takes time for her students to correct their doubts. My goal is to open my own business when I finish my English class.
