Post 10:English Language Challenges

Hello classmates, today is the final post and I’m going to talk about my experience learning English at university. First of all, I have been studying English since high school, in that time English was easy to learn because I had English almost the whole week so it wasn´t difficult to me. In the last year of High school I prepared to take Pet Exam but it wasn’t a much focused preparation.

When I entered to university, I had to take English Exam to know what my level of English was so I did it and the result said that I have to take English 3 class, I spent all 2017 without use English so I forgot some vocabulary and abilities, but now I’m studying English in the English 4 class and it is the last post so I have to say that the experience was entertaining due that blogs and class that it was very didactic. Relative with use of blog I think that it was a very useful tool to improve our writing skill and even to know our classmates.

On other hand I think that my English didn’t improve too much due all the workload that we have and also because I was interesting in other kind of stuffs  so I dint focus too much on learning, I just focused on doing the assignments. To improve my English I plan to travel abroad to test my skills in English because I don’t use English in my diary life, only when I read something relatable with my favorites Korean groups because people that translate Korean first they do it to English and then other people translate it to Spanish, so I read in English because the translation is fastest and also because I like it.

Post 9. Changes to my study Program

Some problems that I get through in my second year of university is relative with the course of career have in the curriculum.  Like all we know, university student suffers because all the workload that they have, some student suffer anxiety, burnout and the most extreme cause end with depression,  but this is not my situation , perhaps I suffered anxiety because test and work, but now it’s not like that.

Through this almost 2 years studying Public administration, I think that the career become monotone, because in the past 4 semesters, its feels that the subjects and the continuity of the course are all the same so it become boring to me because of that I would change the curriculum of the career and I would introduce course more different from the other areas of the study of Public Administration but this is something that I can´t do it
.

On the other think If we think about workload and length of studies of the career that I study, I think that not have a lot of workload but I would probably suggest reduce the course that talk about the same think like the courses about Political Sciences and the relative with the length of studies, I think that is good and I would not make a change on it.

The Faculty facilities of school of Public Administration are not the best but at the same time are not too bad, and I refer about that the school don’t have a place that sell food inside of this, also the eating room is lack of chairs and tables but despite of that, the classrooms and library are suitable.

In addition the use of technology is good because the professor uses projector, even when we study English and statistics we use computer in the computer´s room.

Respect of Teaching methods I prefer teachers of my high school because they teaching methods was very entertaining, didactic and not monotone but the professor of university only talk and I mean a lot and become boring and I don’t understand nothing.

My future holidays

All of the holidays of my life, only I can remember 5 because I don’t go out usually in summer. In my opinion the best place to visit this summer is the beach and going to eat Korean food because of that, This year I would like to go to the beach because I miss how feels the beach air in the face and the sun in the skin, Also I would like to visit Misoya or Sukine which is a Korean restaurant placed in Patronato and eat tokkboki and patbinsu that is a Korean dish that Korean people eat usually in summer, shaved ice dessert.

If I go to the beach probably I would like to go with my family because is something that we don’t do often due we are 7 people and it’s a little expensive go out together but I think that is something that we deserve it for all the years that we could not visit a place during holidays so I if my parents tell me for going out to the beach on holidays I would said: “I am totally agree with going out on vacation.”

If I go to Misoya or Sukine, I would like to go with my two sisters because my old sister, not my fraternal twin sister, other sister, she is been wanting to eat there for a long time even if she say that Korean food is not the best of the world and its quite true but the Korean food have multiple benefits to the health and that is there where I disagree with her because to me is all opposite.

So I'm absolutely convinced that this holydays that are not going to be that same because I’m going to out finally.
