Self-introduction is simply the

act of introducing yourself to
someone else. You might just be
introducing yourself to a new
person you have never met
before, or you might be
introducing yourself to hundreds
of people in a conference room.
 Introducing yourself is much more than saying your name.
You need to tell some more information about yourself in
English. Introducing yourself to strangers can be tricky
because what you say depends on the context, situation (in
a job interview, in an email, or give self-introduction in an
English class).
Here is a simple example:
“My name’s Lucia and I’m from Spain. I
was born in the south of Spain but I live
in Barcelona. I work as a translator, and
I don’t have much time for hobbies
these days. But in the future, I’d like to
try yoga. I’m taking this class because I
want to improve my speaking in English.”
