English language challendges

-



I have never been very interested in learning other languages, especially in a formal way, because my memory is not very good and everything I learn seems to be forgotten. In addition, I did not have very good experiences in school with this subject, as I was doing well in the tests, but the next week I forgot everything and this caused me quite a bit of frustration. So honestly, knowing that I had to take English courses at the university did not make me so motivating.

Learning English at university I think it has not been very interesting, especially because of the online context, because it makes everything stay in that formality that I talked about above, and little is learned, but of course how much can be expected from an online learning?



There are days when I like the idea of ​​blogging, as it escapes the ordinary and allows me to rehearse my writing and my thoughts in this language, although it is difficult for me not to have my own computer and to have to write blogs many times quickly, sometimes causing not being able to do them the way I would like them to be written.

I firmly believe that what I need to improve is my pronunciation and fluency, which is difficult for me because I am quite shy and it makes me quite anxious about the situations in which I could practice my English. So jointly the pronunciation and fluency should practice removing my shame to do that, or else I will not be able to advance in this language.



Outside of class, I still think I use English a lot, because I watch a lot of videos in English, as well as listen to a lot of songs in this language.

The impact of psychology

Personally, i believe that psychology is of great relevance for humans, as it has a great impact on many areas of our lives, that we don’t realize. This impact is diverse.  This discipline has been in charge of our understanding: what we feel, why we feel it, the consequences of it, etc. It has allowed us to help others, giving it relevance and promoting mental health. What would become of us without clinical psychologist? People with mental disorders, without assistance, and without the opportunity to improve their situation. Psychology is also interested in the social sphere, so its impact is also on human groups: what unites us, what separates us, and the interest in a better quality of life for their members, outside the group and within the group itself. Taking their research many times public policy.  Its impact also resides in the school environment, its interest in that in schools there are psychologists concerned about the students, and workers of that institution.

My career and some difficulties

  I quite like my career, however that doesn´t  mean that i would not make certain changes in it. Throughout my career, I have liked the subjects a lot, clearly some more than others. For example, social psychology, history, basic psychological processes and epistemology, have been my favorite lines. This is because the subject has interested me, and links topics that I strongly believe will serve my future. On the other hand, there have been subjects that have become more complicated for me, such as neurophysiology, since I don't have much of a base in biology. The academic load has not been that complicated for me, since the teachers are quite flexible and most of them want us to learn before we get bad grades. the bad thing is that as the classes are online, it causes my motivation to play against me. What is sometimes complicated is the duration of the classes, because I usually get tired quite quickly since it bores me to spend so much time in front of a screen, without any en
