After much discussion , my father won! And this is me! My name is Miriam and I was born on March 1, 1989 In a small town near Madrid, Spain When I was young I was very shy and my mother promised me that if I approached to meet new girls I have a surprise.

Hi Miriam, 

 

You could say:

 

While I was in the belly of my mother, my parents were deciding about what to name me. My mother liked the name 'Erika', while my father preferred 'Miriam'. After much discussion, my father won, and this is me!

 

My name is Miriam and I was born on March 1, 1989 In a small town near Madrid, Spain. 

 

I was very shy as a child, and my mother told me that new surprises await if I approached new girls. There was never a surprise, but it helped me overcome my bashfulness. Even though I cried a lot on my, I made a lot of friends. 


When I was seven years old, my uncle, a handball coach, asked me to start practicing handball. I agreed, and I've been playing the sport for seven years now. It is one of the best experiences of my life.

After finishing school, I decided to study law to put criminals/bad guys in jail. However, I also wanted to earn my own money, so I decided to work with children as a tutor instead.

I was nervous on my first day, but was happy at the same time, knowing that children were learning with me.

I am now tutor of 7seven children. But this story is actually much better than what I've said.

 

Didn't quite understand the last bit of your sentence but I hope I got the jist of it. Hope this helps!
