My reading habits
Although my reading habits have changed over the years and varied in frequency, format or situations, books and their alternatives have always accompanied me one way or another.
I started with my dad telling and reading out stories for me when I was a little child, as in the second picture. I remember this experience with tenderness and gratitude for that first contact with letters and new worlds.
Later, my teachers told me what to read at school and secondary school or university, which I liked and disliked, depending on the piece and task I had to complete. This gave me the chance to get to know Universal Literature and some of the masterpieces and discuss different cultures, approaches to life and general mankind worries, not to mention the acquisition of foreign languages.
Now it is me who suggest reading in class and sometimes, not always, offer alternatives for students to choose their own piece.
I have always associated reading with pleasure, learning and relax, my favourites being novels, online news and blogs. I have to admit that I read more in English than in Spanish and I normally use online text during the acedemic year and paper books in the summertime.
No matter the situation or place (on the bus, at home, by the seaside...) I can find reading enriching and enjoyable.
