INFORMAL EMAIL TO THE TEACHER

Hello, Maria,

My name is Dienabou, I'm 18 years old. I live in Salt, Girona. And today I'm going to tell you about my first job experience. I did this job while I was studing "Attention of disabled people" in the same high school that I am now.

I did this job in Palau, a school for disabled children. My main activity was being the teacher's assistant.So, I did tasks such as taking the children to the bathroom,feeding them and performing activities in the computer and more things. Apart from that, it was my responsibility to look after the children, when the teacher was not in the classroom.

This was a good experience for me, because I learnt so much about the children. Basically I learnt that you can also communicate without words.

I hope you liked my experience, and by the way, I recommend you to visit Palau school.

See you soon, bye!

DESCRIBING A PERSON


The woman that I admire the most in this world is my mom Aissatou, who Works cleaning the offices. She is a supermom and has brought up my four brothers and sisters.
She’s forty, my mom’s twenty years younger than my father. So that’s a lot!
She has the typical African appearance, with curves.
She loves walking with her best friend and meeting with her daughters and friends as well. What’s surprising about her is her long brown hair, because that’s not common among African woman. She looks like an Afro-American.
Something that I really like about my momy is that she has a great heart. She loves help people, so I admire it. Another good thing about her is that she listens to people, and advises them well.

Aissatou is the best example of mother, worker and teacher.. I hope I’m like her when I’m older and I’ve my children.
