Hello... My name is Angel Castro. I am a second-year student at Cal Poly State University, pursuing a B.A. in English.
My interest in English began during my freshman year when I was introduced to authors such as Oscar Wilde and William Golding. I also attribute this passion to my English teacher and the way they taught their lessons, which had a strong impact on my decision to pursue an English degree.
I am pursuing this degree because I aspire to become an English teacher, just like those teachers who inspired me, and want to develop my ability to express ideas clearly and effectively because I hope to write a fiction book in the future.
