English Program Teacher's - Roger Guzman

Roger Guzman

HELLO MATES !!!

My name is ROGER GUZMAN.  I am from Monteria, Colombia. In 1986, I arrived in Medellin after finishing my High school studies in the Atlantic coast. In the year 1993, I got my BH in Languages from the School of Education at Universidad de Antioquia.  Since then on, I have been working as an English teacher for different institutions in the city, UPB, Universidad de Medellin, Universidad National de Colombia and ITM, among others.  In the Year 2008, I finished my Postgraduate studies at Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana where I received my degree as an EFL Instructor.  As an English teacher, I have taught different subjects, being Contrastive Grammar and Academic Writing the most common of all.

I consider myself somewhat serious and shy, but not unsociable whatsoever. Once students and people get to know me, they know that I am a very easygoing person, sociable and understanding.

Apart from being an English teacher, I have got other three passions, they are more than just a free time activity; in fact, they really keep my life moving:  British Culture, Rock Music and Football.  I feel very close to everything that is related with the United Kingdom – History, culture, literature, people and their customs.  Also, I am really mad about ROCK MUSIC, its history and development; I love all kind of genders, bands and musicians, especially if they come from UK.  Altogether with British Culture and Rock music, football plays a very important role in my life. I love watching International football; I am a die-hard fan of RIVER PLATE from Argentina. In fact,, I am part of a Club of a River Plate supporters in Medellin.

Well, that is a little piece of information about me, if you want to know more about me and my British-like life style, you can find me in Facebook as THE FRAGILE REPTILE.
