“¡Hola! My name is Lina Malagón. I am from Bogotá, Colombia. I have a bachelor’s degree in modern languages and a master’s degree in ELT and autonomous learning environments.

“¡Hola! My name is Itzel Rodriguez, and I’m from Michoacán, located in Western Mexico, which is such a beautiful and calm estate known because of its local candies, ‘carnitas’ (local food), and beautiful views. I have a degree in industrial engineering, and now I’m doing a Master of Education degree while teaching Spanish at Carthage. I speak Spanish, which is my native language, English, and very basic Korean. I love music, movies, reading, and talking with people from different cultures. My love for languages and cultures has been with me since I was a kid, so I am looking forward to an exhilarating time in Carthage. I hope we all can have a great time sharing our cultures and supporting each other. ¡Adiós!”
