Hello everyone, My name is Andi Widdaya Sofyana. My friends and fellows always call me Andi. I’m the second child of two children. I was born on June 30th 1992. I live in Temanggung, Central Java, Indonesia. The place where most of people are Tobacco and Coffee farmers.
I began my work as a teacher as a fresh graduate from IAIN Salatiga in 2016. I’m a teacher at one of the best Junior High School In Temanggung, a former of RSBI (Rintisan sekolah berbasis Internasional). Being a teacher is not an easy thing to do, especially in terms of time management. I was also used to teach students at some English Courses in Temanggung, but eventually In 2017 I decided to resign from all English courses and started my own business on Coffee Production. Becoming an owner or CEO at my own business makes me more responsible and though. I started my project which I called it “Globalizing the local and localizing the global” It means that I boost my coffee product on online market to the local market wether it is Coffee shop, Roastery and comsumers of coffee around the country.
As a result I have many costumers from Major city; Jakarta, Pontianak, Denpasar, Makassar, Gowa, Wonogiri, Jogjakarta, Purwokerto, Ternate etc. In 2020 I’d been interviewed by Kompas.com as an informant of coffee plantation and production. The article was published online on Kompas.com. Besides, I invited many foreigners around the world to come and experience what I expereince in my daily life such as teaching students at my school, visiting some holy and tourist destination and enjoyed coffee harvesting during harvesting time. It such a great and memorable experience. Recently I finish my master program on English education at UNNES and become the fastest student who completed the study in less than 2 years.
I joined the second batch of ICP in 2011. I enrolled it because I want to improve skills in English and Arabic. I’m very proud of ICP ; it gives many things that can’t even count it. My achievement during my study in ICP was becoming the Leader of Ma’had or Islamic boarding, it gave more chance to be good leader who have good personalities and performances. I was also selected as a lecturer assistance at UPB IAIN Salatiga, so I have to do both study at my 6th, 7th, and 8th semester and teaching junior student on Saturday. There are many benefits of joining ICP program which tend to be the supporting stuff and motivation in my current work.
At last but not the least that’s little thing that I can share about me. We don’t always need a logical reason for doing good things in our life. Just do because we want to, because we think that it is good to do, and because it makes us a better person. Thank you.
