Autobiography

                My name is Anya L. García Colón and I always try my best to teach with love and dedication from the heart. My parents are Laura Colón and Pablo García, who both worked in the University of Puerto Rico. Also they are my inspiration in my professional and personal life because they have never given up no matter what or how difficult life is, they always look for an option.

                I started school at an early age, just 2 ½ in a Montesory School in Humacao. I stayed there till second grade when they had to close the school. Then I went to a new founded school, Emilio Díaz Lebrón Elementary School were I stated in third grade and stayed till I graduated in sixth grade with high honors. For Secondary and High School I went to Nuestra Señora del Perpetuo Socorro en Humacao. I graduated with honors from ninth and  twelfth grade.

                I first entered the University of Puerto Rico in Humacao in the Associate Degree of Technology of Communication and graduated Cum Laude. Then I went to the Univeristy of Puerto Rico in Río Piedras where I entered the Bachelor’s Degree in Public Communication with a major in Audiovisual Communication and also graduated with honors. I then took a Certification in Professional Photographer in Hispanic American College in Caguas and graduated with a 4.00 GPA.

                After some time without a steady job I decided to study again something else I really like and decided that if I love kids so much and I’m good at English that’s where I should look for.  My parents helped me gather the information I needed and I enrolled in the English Department in the University of Puerto Rico in Humacao.

                It been a long journey for me to feel like I’m doing something I love to do and feel like I am where I belong, surrounded by children, helping them become better and believing in themselves.
