My English language challenges:

Hello partners, I hope you are very well, today, in this blogs I´m going to write about my English language challenges. I would like to say that the learning´s methodology of this class was very nice and it allowed me to get and learn to communicate with others people and understand something more about texts, movies, TV series, etc. In general, the experience with English at university had been entertainment, because the teachers used the participative process, and the class had one part of exposition, and other part with self-learning. It was very important, because the motivation and specifically the self-motivation was the key for the learning. About the methodology used for teachers, specifically about the use for blogs, I think that it is a nice support tool, because it allows us to read and write in English, share with other partners, see other experiences, learn about others careers, and know the knowledge, expectation and motivations of the other people.

Besides I think to need to improved many skills about listening, because I didn´t understand some things, I need more time for the prosecution of information and for this reason I have problems with the conversation with other people. However, I can keep a conversation, but with difficulty.

Finally I use the English for watch TV series. How I know about my problems with listening, I try to practice this, and I do the activity of listen English´s things, like movies or music. The objective is listen again and again until some keep in my head.

I would like to change about my career...

When I began to study psychology, I thought that I would not change anything, I liked it and it seemed entertaining and interesting, but over time I am realizing that I would change many things. Starting with the introductory classes, it because they are very boring, I think that when we enter the career we want to study psychology immediately, we want to talk about psychopathologies, see treatments, know what to do and do therapy with people, but only in the second year we study these more entertaining things, we have subjects calls
“psychiatry”, “psychopathology” and “cognitive neuroscience”. This classes are very nice. In the second place I would maintain the academic load, because it is not much, however I would like more practical subjects and not only theoretical subjects. In addition, I consider that the five years we studied are fine, because it is necessary to know everything we do very well. Regarding the infrastructure I would like more lifts for people who cannot walk well, this faculty should be more inclusive and "friendly", but it is all with stairs and all the places are small. With technology I also think that the u-courses platform is very useful because it allows us to study and have all the information about the subjects and the texts of classes. Finally, I think I would like to change the teaching method to something more participatory and I would like us to occupy other facilities such as the garden, outdoors, etc.
