Good Morning Director Tim, teachers and students! Thanks for coming!
I would like to introduce myself because although many people know me, others still don’t.
My name is Claudia Asselborn and I am running for Secretary of the Student Council.
I am from Argentina. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in education. I worked as a substitute teacher and student counselor. I also worked as an administrative assistant for eleven years in my country.
I came to California with my husband for his work. First, we lived in San Francisco for a few months, and then, we moved to San Mateo two years ago. I've been studying English in San Mateo Adult School since then. I am Student Ambassador and joined in the program ESL City Government Academy.
My English was very poor, and to be honest, in my high school I was never a good English student. But studying English here in our school has changed my life! Learning English in a wonderful environment, in my opinion, is not only excellent, it is also a unique opportunity! Thanks all my teachers for teaching me.
Today, I am here in front of you because, as I said before, I am running for Secretary, and I would like to be part of the Student Council because I really enjoy creating ideas and working together as a team. I want to help organize activities to raise money for the Student Council and help our school. I am a friendly person, active, responsible, and helpful.
I promise to work together with the President and Vice President with openness and honesty.
Thank you for your time, thank you for listening me, and remember to vote for me:
Claudia Asselborn Secretary!
Thank you so much!
