English Language


Learning a new language, it’s a challenge, in our era, the technology brings us the facilities to study any language that we want in every moment that we want, and even cheap or free. And it’s necessary for everyone who wants to study or work outside the country. Like English, that’s why the university teach us. Personally, I don’t really learn too much English, but the class serves to remember important words and phrases. About the use of blogs, I think that it’s very good to express your vocabulary and knowledge, also you express your opinion and feelings about a topic. I enjoyed some blogs, but others I hated it because it’s a different vocabulary, specifically a “scientific” vocabulary, which I don’t have domination, and it’s hard, there are a lot of word that I can’t even translate in “science papers”. Personally, I don’t really like to write a lot, and it’s hard to me to express myself in a camera, or with a person, I prefer to read than write. Some aspects of my English to get better are for example, my pronunciation, and the only way is having a conversation, or recording yourself, read papers and translate important words that I don’t know. Outside the English class, I only listen to music in English, I don’t watch series (with subtitles obviously). Rarely watch a video in Youtube in English and I don’t read or play games in English. I didn’t even expect to do less in English, because it was one of my preferred subjects in school.  That must change!

My Opinion about....

My opinion about violence in television. In my opinion, the violence in television is too excessive, and there is no filter for anyone. Actually, I don´t like to watch the news because they cause panic in everyone. They scare you with “portonazos”, and when is more violent, they give more attention to that because people like the morbid. My opinion about buying pets instead of adopting. I really hate when people buy pets, because they aren´t objects. My friends used to buy dogs for example. I’ve never bought a dog, and I will never buy one. All the dogs in my family were adopted. And also, thieves steal these dogs because they are expensive. My opinion about recycling. A lot of people say that it’s ok to recycling, but they never go to a green point. My family recycle a lot in the house, we have different bags to different things like plastic, glass and paperboard. Schools need to teach more about recycling and how can we help the environment. My opinion about...

A Country I Would Like to Travel

Image
Hello to everyone, today I’m going to talk about a country I would like to travel to. I would like to go to Uruguay, because my father lived in Montevideo when he was younger and talked a lot about his experience, he showed me how to drink mate like a Uruguayan, drinking in the street and without sugar. I know they like a lot of football, eat roast meat, the marihuana is legal there (I don’t care about that because I don’t smoke) If I go to Uruguay, I will go to the “Estadio Centenario” to watch a football match. If I have the opportunity to watch the classic between Peñarol and Nacional I will be there. Also I want to visit “Ciudad Vieja” neighbourhood, because of the bohemian architecture. In this moment, I don’t really want to live there because it’s an expensive country to live, their inflation is high right now, and the bureaucracy there is too slow for the low population.

Changes in my programme

This is my first year in the University, I’m studying Biochemistry. At this moment, no one knows if we like this study programme until third year. There is one subject in our first year associated with the program which name is “Reasoning and Scientific Communication”. And in the second year, we have no one. In my opinion, this should change now because it’s a lot of wasted time without doing something related to the program. Other thing that need to change now is the average of “Introduction to Calculus”. There are friends who passed the subject only knowing how to use excel, and in “Calculus” they don’t know nothing. If you know how to do the “Polya Method”, you pass without knowing maths. This career lasts 5 and a half years (minimum if you want to do research in the future) this is excessive if we compare to other countries like United States or Canada, there only takes 2 years. Some teachers are obligated to teach in University to do research, so they don’t have vocation d...
