Changes to my study program

I study social work, and actually I have to read a lot of texts and books, and because of pandemics evaluations are done at home. About the curriculum, the first subjects I have to study are related to social sciences, these are made as an introduction for the career; which is the basic cycle. The specialized cycle starts at third year, in which I can study and specialize on subjects and investigations about different issues. And the last one is the professional cycle and sadly I’m not sure how the last subjects are, but I think that are more investigations.

In my opinion, teaching methods should change a little bit, because during pandemics I feel that I couldn’t learn all the stuff I should learn, I’m not saying that everything must change, it’s more like teaching more stuff that can be complemented with theories, such as learning how to use programs or practice. Also, I would like that the study program includes more authors from Latin-American. There are tools in the Faculty that can complement studies such as a library because books can be useful for researches; also, a computer room access could be necessary because students can learn how to use excel or use statistics programs for investigations or more stuff. I can’t say more because I went to the Faculty once because of some doubts about scholarships, and I couldn’t go to other places.

English language challenges!

Hello, today I am going to make a blog about learning English. Learning English at university is an interesting experience because I have that subject at online classes, is very different when I have to talk, take classes, doing presentations and tasks face to face than doing all of this stuff at online classes. Doing blogs is helpful to me because I can improve my grammar and apply new vocabulary and it’s a good exercise for writing about different things and themes, it encourages my creativity. Actually I need to improve some aspects about my English, such as pronunciation and listening conversations in English. About the first aspect, I have mispronunciations about some words and this can be improve if I practice more my speaking, so I have to speak more, listen how I sound and use some dictionary to make sure how to pronounce some words. Also, I have some troubles understanding and hearing some words while I am doing listening’s, I can improve this watching movies or shows in Eng...

Pandemic

Living in pandemic times is hard; people are dealing with problems such as the collapse of the Health System because of the increase of patients in hospitals. Another issue is the fact that there are people who work and risk their lives, like doctors and nurses that attend patients, or just people who can’t do online work; at the opposite, because of pandemics there are unemployment and families are trying to deal with this situation, for example there are common pots. There are problems about mental health, quarantine made people feel stressed, with anxiety, living in an environment of uncertainty; also I have to mention the amount of fake news. A lot of people had to change their habits and working modalities; for example, there are people in their homes to avoid more coronavirus cases; because of that, there are online works and online classes. Also, people travel less, unless it is for something important like buying food. To be honest, I really would like to think that pandemic ...

Holidays!

One of the best holidays that I kind of remember happened before pandemics; is a travel through Pichilemu city.   The travel was at the end of February, 2020. I went with my mom, my sister, my cousin, my aunt and my uncle. We spent almost one day there, we get up at 5:00 AM and the travel started at 6:00 AM; we traveled in my uncle's car. We did some stops but I am going to mention the ones I remember, our first stop was in Cáhuil, we saw the salt deposit in the Salinas de Cáhuil. There is a hill at the opposite, so, we decided to walk and breathe some air. The second one was on Ciruelos, we went to the San Andrés Church. The third stop was in a small park that I don’t remember where it is. And the last one was on a lake and we went to a nearby beach. I have never been in Pichilemu and it was interesting to go there and learn about this city because the only thing I knew about it was related to surfing.
