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.

    I agree with the idea that English at the university is not interesting

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.

Hello! in this blog, i would like to talk about a country i would like to go. I have always been interested in history. As I grew up, this interest focused on Latin American history, that’s why my dream is to know every country of it, because of this way i will know more about it, and not just by reading, but because i would see the reality and listen to the people from there. Panamá, specifically, is the country i would love to visit.  Island of Coiba Panamá is a very  rich country in  history of Latin America. You can see it in  it’s  walls, and streets. With an important popular power expressed in the social movements that exist there.

Time travel to future

the truth is that I would not like to travel to the future,  I don't like the idea of ​​making a leap in my life, because maybe it would stop taking value from situations or people that I see have changed in my future and I suppose that is the task of Antonia of the present. I am also, very afraid of what I can see, and not be able to continue with my normal life with the other people who did not make the travel to the future. This is why, if I have to take a trip to the future, I would not go to a specific moment in my life, or to see people who are now part of my life, but rather, I would like to see how things have changed. As can be seen if Chile in general has improved the social situation of the country a little. I would also like to visualize the common things to see if there are changes, be it technology, supermarkets, concerts, cinemas,  the bands or artists that are playing at that time,  etc.  therefore, I would travel 100 years or so, to be able to see a ...
