Hello Everybody,

My name’s Fabiane Lara and I’m an English teacher at Casa Thomas Jefferson, a Binational Center in Brazil. I have been woking as an English teacher for five years, and I really love my job.

Let me tell you a little about my group! There are seventeen students ranging from 12 to 14. They are all pretty talkative, outgoing and smart. They all love listening to music, watching movies and playing computer games.

Even though they sometimes get wild in class, they are really cool people and we usually have a great time together.

Here, in Brazil, we are all pretty excited about the project, and my students are eager to get to know you. I hope you’ll become great friends, and you’ll also exchange experiences about teenagers’ lifestyles in both countries.

That’s it , guys!!! See you all on the blog!
