Paper # 1 – Introduction – Cyro

Hello, people.

Excepting Roberta, who has already studied with me here in Alumni, none of you know me yet. So let me introduce myself at first. I´m 40 years old and I’ve missed my classes last weeks because I’ve a job that sometimes consumes me more that I deserve: advertising.

I’ve inniciate in this area 20 years ago and I still don’t have a good reason for that choice, only that I was a young guy who wanted to be a writer, a journalist or a professional who would like to work with words. I think that the “ads” were the easiest way that time… so here I am, working hard in a advertisement agency.

This english course for me is not only a way to develop my professional skills, but mainly a way to expand some knowledgments beyond my profession. If it’s impossible to read as I used to do in the past, the contact with other language can be a good remedy for that.

At least, I have a wife (since January), and a son from my first marriage. He is 13 years old and loves Palmeiras as I do. (Sorry, Rick, but I still believe we’ll be the champions this year!!!).
