My own definition of art:
A Reliable Therapy.
A way to convey ideas, thoughts, opinions, feelings, and points of view.
I’ve always been passionate about visual communication.
Therefore, graphic design, photography, and illustration truly helped me find my calling.
In 2009 I had the opportunity to start teaching English, and I decided to use my graphic design abilities to improve and complement my classes and courses.
I’ve been teaching ever since, and I have acquired and developed several skills, such as patience, team working, planning, leadership, creativity, and course designing.
Even though I wasn’t aware of the ADDIE model until recently, I have practically been using it to develop a lot of didactic material.
These two careers now define who I am and have considerably helped me grow up professionally.
English is not my first language; however, it has been improving due to my teaching career. Perfection is almost unattainable; improvement isn’t.
That is something I’ll always bear in mind.
