10 Facts About Me That You May Not Know

10 Facts About Me was a video tag that was around last year on Youtube. Lots of English Language Teaching professionals took part in it. It was a fun way to let you guys know a little bit more about us, the people who give English language tips on our websites, Youtube channels, podcasts, etc.

I remember that the great Ulisses Carvalho, the Tecla Sap guy, invited me to record the video tag 10 facts about me. Well, I must fess up at that time, things weren’t kinda great in life. Due to some personal problems, I wasn’t really in the mood for recording videos (and taking care of the whole Inglês na Ponta da Língua). Yeah! Things were really bad! So, I just let it go.

Now, as I am back to the Youtube universe, I decided to record this video talking about 10 facts about me. I also had this video because a lot of people have been asking me to record a video in English. So, this is a great opportunity for you guys to listen to me speaking English, and – of course – learning ten facts about me that you may not know.

I hope you enjoy the video. I hope you understand everything I say on it. I hope you learn something from it. I hope you also subscribe to Inglês na Ponta da Língua channel on Youtube.

Well, no more talking! Below you have the video. So, watch it and, in case you like it, let me know. It’ll be a great pleasure to keep talking to you about 10 facts about me.
