English Language Challenges

English Language Challenges

I can´t believe that this is the last class, the time passed faster than I expected. Nevertheless, I think that I learn so many things thanks to this subject. Practice English twice for week make me improve my vocabulary, my grammar and my pronunciation. Maybe in some occasions practice English after a long day is not my favorite option, but I have to admit that make me very well to improve my knowledge in English.

The course was being nice; I liked every class that we have because I think that they were so interesting and enriching. In the most of them, I can learn something new, either a word or a form to write a phrase. Something so interesting and awesome was used the blog, made different post about so many theme become so new and good for improving our knowledge.

However, I still need to improve my grammar and for that, I want to continue write constantly in English to not lose the practice. I know that is difficult, but If I want to progress, is the best thing that I can to do. And I think, that is always good continue try to improve my pronunciation to reach a greater fluency, this objective I don´t know how get it, because, outside the class are very few time that I can practice.

These days, I use English only for watching movies. I try to watch movies in English to meet better the language and can adapt me more quickly to some strange pronunciations and words.  That is all, good bye.

Changes to My Study Programme

Changes to My Study Programme

When I saw the curriculum of the career, I liked it so much and that's why I wanted to enter in this university, but I never thought about wanting to change something or wondering why these subjects would be taught in specific. Even now, I wouldn´t know very well what I would like to change, probably I would like to incorporate something that withdrew from the career (gender), I would also like the career take a more feminist approach because, as psychologists, we must educate ourselves in relation a way of thinking more fair, trying to combat stereotypes to contribute to the creation of a more egalitarian society.

Therefore, instead of thinking about changing the career curriculum, faculty facilities or the use of technology, I find it more pertinent discuss the time that we spent studying to approve the career. I understand that the "university world" is “other thing”, the secondary school rhythm no longer exists, nor the same opportunities. But the change is sometimes a little abrupt: we are in a different environment, with more difficulty and more academic load and must learn to deal with it, which can be dangerous: the rhythm of life demands constancy and it can generate stress or impotence because sometimes we can´t comply with everything. Sometimes, the academic burden becomes very heavy, which means taking more time than necessary, making the study absorb us. And that is not good.

It would be good to create a curriculum that doesn´t drive the student "crazy". It would be good to understand that sometimes it is difficult to have free time for all the projects that we have.

I would like to change that, improve the curriculum of the career so that students can study what they like but without "losing their head".

Winter Holidays

Winter Holidays

I never make plans for winter holidays because I never accomplish them. I remember that, every time I made one, I  did  the contrary. For this reason, I prefer to live the holydays without plans because I have to admit that I always end up doing the same: sleeping late, and rest all day.

This time, I try to be more realistic and I have only one plan: I would like to go to the snow . Just that. Well, I would like go to the beach too, but I don´t have a good health and the cold of the beach makes me sick faster. For this, I prefer to stay home and try to protect my body from possible colds...

The rest of the time, I want to spend it resting, sleeping late, going to visit my grandparents and reading every book that I have in my summer list, but I don´t want to touch any book of psychology, I think that my love for them is over for now jajaja, nevertheless, If the love comes back in some moment, I don´t have problems to continue studying psychology in my winter holydays.

I would like to add that, in this moment, I hope the vacations with so much expectation: I need to sleep more than five hours everyday. And I want to have time for more things than just studying. I want to have time to do other activities, I want to draw, read and do exercises.
