years old, a Brazilian waiter working in a well-known restaurant in the city. Read it and then do
the activities.
Reporter: You speak English very well. How long have you been in the USA?
Vitor: I’ve been here for almost 2 years. I’ve got a scholarship and I’m taking a course in hotel
administration at Johnson & Wales University. I got this summertime job to make some money.
Reporter: Where exactly are you from, in Brazil?
Vitor: I’m from a small town in São Paulo state, Southeastern region. I studied in a public
state school and attended a one-year English course at CEL – Centro de Estudos de Línguas –,
which is a language center for public school students in São Paulo. Also I took part in a Program
created by the U.S. Embassy in Brazil in 2002, called Youth Ambassadors. I was one of the
winners in 2009 and I had the opportunity to come to the U.S. for a three-week stay with a host
family. We visited Washington, D.C. and the White House.
Reporter: And why did you decide to come back to study here?
Vitor: I wanted to go on improving my English and make my dream come true: I want to be an
international chef and open my own restaurant here in the U.S.
Reporter: And you will, for sure! Good luck!
Vitor: Thank you!
