About: Cecilia

About Me My name is Cecilia and I was born and raised in Argentina. Before moving to Chicago I was teaching ESL and I've been providing foreign language instruction and integrating cross-cultural training to a wide audience in the Chicago metropolitan area since then. I believe that learning new languages and cultures opens doors to the world and gives a broader view of things. I am really enthusiastic about participating in building an integrated model of learning at GCE. Why GCE I strongly believe that the GCE model of education creates an excellent learning environment where students from all over the world can inspire and be inspired to pursue their goals! I think GCE provides a space, a safe environment, a community where students as well as staff can be creative, be challenged, learn, be and have fun!.
