Blog 6: English Language Challenges

Imagen
Hi everyone! This is the last blog and I’m going to talk about the English Language Challenges. To start, I’m gonna say that I was so afraid with the idea of having English classes at university because I thought that it was going to be so difficult and boring haha, and I was a little bit disappointed for not being exempt and have to do the two latest English levels. But I have to say that, even when I only had English classes this semester, the face-to-face classes has been so funny and understandable, and I love the methodology that the class has and the evaluations it has. In relation with this, I have a good experience with the evaluations, and particularly with the blogs I find it entertaining and a good form to evaluate and practice the language. Now, I said that I was disappointed for not being exempt, but with the classes I realize that I needed to have English classes again because my skills with the language worsened, especially in the speaking. So, to improve it, I think tha...

Blog 5: Changes to my study program

Imagen
Hello everyone! For this fifth blog I’m gonna talk about the changes that I would do to my study program, in psychology. One of the changes is related to the methodology of some classes. I would love that every class could be face to face as it has been until now, but also always having the option of hybrid class, or at least record it for those who can’t to go to the university, like the ones that lives far or have disorders that make it impossible for them to even leave their homes. This involves certain changes of the infrastructure of some classrooms, specifically in the newest building, because some of them doesn’t have wi-fi access or the best acoustics. And related with the infrastructure, it would be so great that we could have more green areas and study rooms. Other change that I would do has relation with the use of technology and the teaching methods. We had only one face to face class that we saw extracts of documentaries, and I found it so interesting and facilitator for m...

Blog 4: Post-Graduate Studies

Imagen
 Hello everyone! This time I'm gonna talk about postgraduate studies. It seems a little bit too far to me, because I'm just in my second year of my career, but I really would like to study a Master's Program, maybe something related to educational, social or child psychology because they're very interesting and must be important to study for being the roots of everything :). Before continuing, I have to say that I thought about studying another career like sociology after finishing my formal years in psychology, but to be honest right now I only want to specialize in my career haha. Furthermore, in line with Psychology's Master Programs, I would like to study subjects like society and its influence in mental health and behavior; children's cases; how schools influence a healthy space for children and how they can guarantee it; school life; the process of learning and the role of teachers; etc. in relation with educational and social psychology. The last thing th...

Blog 3: My dream job

Imagen
Hi everyone! In this third blog I'm gonna talk about my dream job. To being honest, since I was 13 I've imagine me being and working as a psychologist, specifically a clinical psychologist, like the one who appears in movies; listening to people's problems and doing a psychotherapy. I think that clinical psychology it's so interesting but, studying the career, I found that I still love the idea of being a psychologist, but with a different specialty: An educational and social psychologist. That means that I would love to work in schools, with children and probably being part of a psychosocial duo. Also, I would love to do investigations and study about the relation of the social, collectives and the individual; that social focus I think it's so important to apply in the psychology's studies. Before talking about the necessary skills and the salary, I'm gonna talk about why I study my career, that is psychology. All began watching movies with the theme of men...

Blog 2: The best concert ever

Imagen
Hi again! This time I'm gonna talk about the best concert ever for me, and that was the One Direction's concert! <3 As you can apreciate it, the One Direction's concert was in the National Stadium, exactly in April 30, 2014. If you don't know about this band, I can say to you that it was a five band who sang pop, their names are Niall, Louis, Liam, Harry and Zayn, and they had some famous songs like "What Makes You Beautiful" or "Night Changes". However, they are very famous for Zayn's exit of the band, and for took an "8 months rest" (quotation marks because they probably never come back XD). Returning to the subject, that is the concert, I have to admit that I was too far of the stage, so I don't saw them too well (it's noticeable in the photos haha), and that day was so cold. But, despite that, everything was so beautiful!  I sang and screamed a lot with a lot of young people around, including one of my friends, my cousin ...

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit (Italy)

Imagen
Hi everyone! I'm gonna talk about the country that I would like to visit, and that country is Italy! :D So, I wanna visit Italy because I found it a beautiful country in terms of culture and art, architecture, beliefs, etcetera. Since I was like 17 years old. What I know about this country is where's it -I mean, Italy is from Europe-, its capital is Rome, and some of its beliefs, history, and iconic places and celebrities like, for example, they believed in various gods; the famous Eruption of Mount Vesuvius (Pompeii); Coliseum in Rome; and Leonardo da Vinci, respectively. If I was in Italy, I'll definitely visit a lot of places like, as I named before, the Coliseum in Rome, sail through Venice, meet the Sistine Chapel -even when this place is from the Vatican- and the museums that be there, etcetera. :D  Finally, I'm gonna said that, actually, I only wanna go to Italy to do an exchange in academic terms; I wanna continue my career -that is psychology- in Italy one seme...
