New Foreign Teachers at Uniminuto

Annie Forman

Hi, I’m Annie Forman! I’m from Seattle, Washington in the northwest corner of the United States. I studied Cultural Anthropology and Spanish in my undergraduate career and I plan on pursuing the study of the Spanish language in graduate school. I spent a semester studying abroad in Valdivia, Chile, but I have never been to Colombia before. I love Latin America, and I’m so happy to be living here in Bogotá and proud to be teaching English at Uniminuto.

I came to Colombia in January through WorldTeach, a non-profit organization that sends volunteer English teachers to countries all over the world. I chose to come to Colombia because I was intrigued by the blend of cultures and vivid history of this happiest country in the world. So far I love ajiaco, the view from Monserrate, the museums, the street art, the mangos, the word “chévere” and getting a seat on the TransMilenio. Thank you for sharing your beautiful country with me!

María Antonia Montes 

Hi and greetings to you all! My name is Maria Antonia Montes and I am from Louisville, Kentucky, a large city tucked away in the beautiful southern portion of the US. I studied Political Science, Italian and Latin American Studies in my undergraduate career. These areas are my academic passions and I plan to continue studying Italian and learning more about the Colombian political system.  I am also excited to learn from you over the next year, to learn about your culture, and to explore all the beautiful cities your country has to offer.

I am thrilled to be in Bogotá for the next year teaching you English. I came here through WorldTeach, a non-profit organization that sends young volunteers to teach English all around the world.  I have loved being in Bogotá, and have loved being at Uniminuto; I am touched to have been accepted into your community so quickly.  I have grown to love and enjoy Jugo de Guanábana, Bandeja Paisa, la Candelaria, Museo del Oro, Usaquén’s mercado de las pulgas and Carlos Vives’ vallenato. Thank you for welcoming me into your community and to your country; I am so happy to share this year with you all!

Hello! My name is Christopher. I am from the UK. At university, I studied Modern Languages (Spanish, Russian, and Czech) and I graduated in July. I am now spending a year in Bogotá working at Uniminuto to help YOU with your English and share my culture with you! This is my first time in Colombia and I am really looking forward to getting to know your culture too. I love travelling and learning about other countries. In my free time, I sometimes listen to and play music. I also like to go to the theatre and cinema, but most of all I like to spend time with my friends!

'Hi, my name is Jennifer but you can call me Jenny. I’m from London and I will be living in Colombia for one year to help students at Uniminuto with their English. I love travelling, languages and cultures so I hope to learn a lot about Colombia this year. Come to our English conversation clubs and I will do my best to share my language and experiences with you. I’m sure we will have many exciting things to talk about!"'
