Considering learning as the way to transform the context and reality in which I interact, learning is a process that has been in my life since I was very young. This constant activity has allowed me to grow in many aspects as a person and as a professional. Being a teacher is part of why learning is important to me. To be in touch with my students and help them overcome their difficulties I need to learn continuously; by them and in formal and informal academic spaces. In this sense, learning has become a relevant part of all my daily activities. It's a lifestyle. In this way, learning is an intrinsic and extrinsic motivation when it becomes a tool to face difficulties, grow and better understand the concerns that were happening around me. The way learning provides me with information to solve problems or clear up misunderstandings is why it motivates me. Another important aspect when learning is the constant reflection I make on my strengths and weaknesses in all the roles I play in my life. As a student I have identified the following characteristics that give meaning to my learning process: Strengths: Hard work; I am a compromised person in my professional life as well as in my personal life. I always do my best to achieve my academic, professional and personal goals Sensitive: I care about the well-being of the people around me and mainly the people I love, my family and friends. In this way I stand in solidarity whenever possible. I like helping people Creative: this is one of my favourites, I love designing and planning new activities to change routines and improve people's experiences. In my personal life, I am the one who plans the parties, meetings, celebrations...... middle of paper ...... that help me to succeed in life, for this reason and with the Banduras principles of self-efficacy in sociocognitive theory, I can believe in my ability to succeed in different situations regarding the academic, personal or professional context of my life. I have faith in myself. In fact, I set myself long, medium and short term goals to be happy and satisfied with the challenges I accept day after day. To conclude my student profile, it is relevant to start building and including autonomy in my profile; consequently it is important to reflect on my skills regarding the use of technology. I feel strongly that I need to know more about technological issues, although; I'm good at managing web 2.0 software and tools. I like to stay up to date on new strategies and virtual environments that I can use with my students or myself to improve independent learning.
