Hi my name is Mariana Pérez Rivera.
My group is 406.
The subject is English.
The school period is 2010-2011.
The teacher is Carolina Hidalgo Hernández.

Why I think learning English is important?
I think that is important to learn english because if you want to travel to a country that speaks english you will may need it so in that way you can  communicate with other people and in case of an emergency you can say what's going on and you can discover many things about other cultures by learning a different language.
