My first teaching day arrived and with it my deepest emotions aroused at once.I wanted to be a good teacher,I wanted to test the knowledge gained in several years of study.I was eager to please my principal(at that time Moises Herbas Rico)and my students as well.I wanted to be part of that great family.My ex-colleagues treated me as one of them,I mean they make me feel another Bolivian teacher , despite the fact of being Argentinian "a GAUCHO" as they call Argentinians.My dear ex-colleagues gave me the confidence to continue teaching,they were inthose terrible days of loneliness,especially my dear friend GABRIEL GUTIERREZ CASTRO ,an excellent teacher, skilfull and wise in every aspect of life.Gabriel outstanding performance at school lead him to continue in his post , being the best Geography,Civics,and History teacher I have ever known.
