Something to know about me!

Hello!!!

My name is Ariadna Montilla and I am 22 years old. I studied Infant Education at Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (uic) and in the last course of my degree I did the minor of English. In fact, I already started to study education thinking on being an English teacher, I've always enjoyed learning this language (in the sense I really like it, you know the activities we did some years ago at school did not stand out for being motivating and engaging...). However, I decided to learn that language on my own and start building my path in relation to it. That's me, I like challenges in my life. Both the personal and professional ones, I like to push myself to the limit and I really enjoy the process of achieving something (which is not always easy but this does not mean impossible!)

I consider I am an active person; as a first impression I can look fairly relaxed and quite but I always need to have something to do (useful of course ;)). I really love swimming, it helps me forget about everything (all these things I always want to do and look forward them). I love going to the beach, feel the unique and unmistakable breeze of the Mediterranean Sea but I also enjoy going to the mountains and sense the peacefully atmosphere you cannot find in another place.

As regards the ICT world, I have to say that I’ve always loved using and innovating with different tools. I like to explore them and know how to make the best of these resources. I really like to create collages and compositions with pictures or texts and reflect on them my style and personality, let’s call it digital crafts!   

Some years ago I had a teacher at the University, who told us about Delicious, she gave us some tips about this social bookmarking and I created an account. I found it interesting but I’ve given up using it as I didn’t truly explore it properly. Now, it’s not too long since I’ve discovered Symbaloo and what I really like about this social bookmarking is its simple, visual and easy block’s organisation. I similarly like Flipboard for its attractive and catchy appearance, especially in tablets and smartphones, but I need to examine it a little bit more. Even that fact, I can say I find it useful and completely customized. Apart from that you’re surely going to find plenty of resources and interesting articles in that social network.   

And to conclude, Twitter... It’s some days since I got back my account. I started using it, following, exploring and YES! I am definitely getting hooked on it!

This is all about me and my relationship with ICT! So...





My best xx
