English language challenges

Imagen
Hi everyone, hope you are well!! This is my last blog and I will talk about my experience with English classes this semester. First of all I want to tell you about the experience itself. I had a hard time adjusting at first because this is my first semester of classroom English because of the pandemic, but with time I was able to adapt. The blogs made the classes more entertaining, it is a fun dynamic and it improves our English writing skills. I really like them and I would like them to continue to be implemented at all levels of English. On the other hand, the teaching methods is pleasant and complete, the teachers teach in a good way, understanding the students who find it a little more difficult to learn. In relation to the aspects of my English that I need to improve are reading comprehension and pronunciation. I plan to improve them with practice, that is to say, to improve these deficiencies I should read more in English, such as: books, articles, re...

Changes to my study program

Imagen
 Hi everyone, hope you are well!!! In this blog I will talk about the changes that could be made in the career of social work at the university of chile (this is the career that I study).  Regarding the curriculum I think that some subjects could be changed for others that focus more on the practice of the social worker, that prepare us to be good professionals, that teach us how we should work and practice the career. The workload could be decreased to prioritize the mental health of us, the students, without being considered lazy for demanding less study. As well as the number of years the career lasts, it could easily be reduced to 3, emphasizing what is most important. On the other hand, I do not know the infrastructure in detail, but as far as the casinos are concerned, they should be larger for the number of students that we are so that we can all eat in optimal conditions. The use of technology could be increased to be more prepared, because we hardly use it. Finally, I...

Hi everyone hope everything is fine!! Today I will talk about the graduates studies.  I would like to study in a Master´s Program in Spain are after undergrade studies, something related to childhood, to feminism or to gender violence. Sincerely, I am interested more the childhood, since as I said in the previous blog, children are my weakness.  Finishing my current career (social work), I would like to study psychology, because it was my second option, so if I had the financial means and the incentive, I would. Most likely I will, because psychology deals with topics of interest to me, such as the emotions, behaviour, mental problems, among others.  On the other hand, I would like study language teaching, I am not sure, because I like teach, but I do not feel prepared.  Another subject that interests me is social history because its object of study is the society as a whole.  I would love to study outside of Chile, especially in Spain, ...

My name is Jessica and today i will talk about my best vacation ever.  My best vacation was in the winter vacation in 2021 with my friends: Victoria, Isidora, Valentina, Alfredo and Constanza. We went to Viña del Mar, specifically Concon, to my brother´s house. We traveled by bus and local buses. We were  five days there (wonderful days).

My name is Jessica and  today i will talk about the country i would like to visit some day.  I would like to visit Brazil, located in South America, because it is a very large country, it has a tropical climate and it is a beautiful place. I know the Brasil that has sweet and enormous carnivals. Also I know that it symbolize the statue Cristo Redentor, because it measure 38 meters and the language they speak is Portuguese.

And the other hand, I would like to drink caipiriña and eat the typical foods. I would like to work and live in Brasil, but a short time, because I miss my family, friends and my house. Also I would like to study there, but it is complicated to learn the language, because I don’t speak Portuguese, I talk Spanish.  I hope to visit the splendid country!! ...
