My name is Ilsia B., I was born on January 1, 2012. I live with my parents and my 4 siblings. I am the second daughter, we are all studying except the little one. We live in a house with a small kitchen made of wood and a small room of cement and wood, since my parents do not have the possibilities to build a house with better conditions. We live in our own house with my mother, my father does not stay at the house. He spends his time working in cane cutting and he does not support us very much.
My dream is to be a teacher, I really like the Spanish Language class. I read many books, that way I learn more and develop my skills. When I grow up, I will have more knowledge, that way I will be a better professional and be a competitive person. My father's name is Marco, he is a day laborer, he works cutting cane on the coasts of Escuintla, he only studied sixth grade, he has 5 children. My mother's name is Maria, she is a housewife, sometimes she does her embroidery, in most of her time she dedicates herself to the work because what her husband leaves her is not enough. My mother is the only one who supports education since my father believes that studying is the wrong path.
