The Blog Experience

I never did a blog (or something like that) before. I enjoyed  this new experience, because I never took the time to write about different topics and also in english, and use this blog thing too. sometimes I don't like because often I have no time (or my very bad organization) and I delay in publishing.

Personally I think that helped me to improve my english, to expand my vocabulary, the corrections helped me to see my errors and I try to don't do it again.

Use blogs is a non very common tool to help the students to improve the writing skills in a english class, a technological creation for the benefit of learning seems like a great idea. Besides is a little more "interesting" for us, the students. A disadvantage is the obvious need of internet, if it "falls", you can't post the next blog.

As a suggestion... I don't have big suggestions, it's a good method and good blogs too, I would have liked to do more blogging about ourselves and to know the tastes of my classmates, and maybe some blogs about "random" things.

As I said I liked the opportunity, have my own blog, express my ideas and learn a bit more everyday.

My Faith in Humanity

Everyday in all the mass media, we saw news, terrible news, about war, murders, violence, hate, hunger, abuse... revealing that the world is getting worse. All of this is because the bad actions of people who can't measure the consequences of their decisions...people who can't see how they hurt the weaker, as harm us all, or just don't want to see.

With this video of "My Faith in Humanity Restored", just a little video of moments, as the tittle says, try to make you believe again that not all is lost (this caught my attention)

Just small examples, sometimes anonymous, of how people are capable of love, to give, to be generous, help the neighbor, of kindness, understanding, compassion, of ask for forgiveness and forgive, of friendship, to know that are more important things to worry about, to save the weaker, to be brave, to take care of others...

Is short but I recommend it, it fulfilled its mission with me, I hope with you too.

Here is the video.  Enjoy it.

Not all is lost...

English learning

According to my opinion the english is the world's language, although others languages are widely spoken around the world like chinese, spanish, japanese, german, etc... Wherever you go, you can communicate in english.

In Forestry is really necessary, because the most job opportunities and the market are abroad and the new information is in english too. So make obligatory english classes in university, in my opinion is a good initiative, but is required a better education in school.

I like very much the English 3 class, I learned english in school (the best I could ) , I didn't have any instance to reinforce my knowledge and learn new words and expressions. The only thing I would change, is increase the class hours or divide it in two days. So it could perform more evaluations and more work in class. but otherwise wouldn't be so intensive.

Personally I think that I need to improve my pronunciation, because I'm very shy, I can't speak in public and even more with fear of mispronouncing. hehe.
