English language challenges

Imagen
  When I was a child, my dad was always teaching me new words in English, so when I entered the first years of school I was already handling the most basic words. In all my years of study at school, I always had English classes, however, as the years went by, the level of difficulty increased more and more, so I understood the language less and less. I remember my English teachers very fondly, one of them was even finished in the Global Teacher Prize, she was really a vocational teacher. They used different methods to teach us, from listening classics when the teacher came to the classroom with the radio, to completing song lyrics, it was fun, but if I'm honest when I listen to English I understand it less than when I read it. At the university I think I have not had a significant learning in English, in my opinion we are in a system where it is more important to approve branches than to actually learn and that can sometimes play against us, but blogs have been a good method to...

Changes to my study programme

 I think this is a very interesting topic. First of all, I have to mention that I study dentistry, it is a career that lasts 6 years in case one does not fall behind, however, a dental student in Chile completes the degree in an average of 8 years. In the 4 semesters that I have been in the career, I have had 7 subjects in all of them, some have a heavier academic load than others. For example, in this semester the areas with the highest academic load are "Biological and clinical bases for diagnosis" and "simulation for professional practice", in my opinion, as these are more difficult areas and with a greater number of classes, they require a lot of study time, which is sometimes difficult to achieve because it is also necessary to comply with the other branches, so that deep learning is not achieved. I really would like the number of classes that upload to the platform to be less, since that way one could focus on fewer classes and achieve better learning. Regardi...

My favorite food

 In today's blog I'm going to talk about my favorite food, it was a bit difficult to choose because in general I like many foods, but I decided on French fries. I know it sounds like a very basic meal, but I'm not talking about the French fries alone, but rather accompanied by another food and this is one of the biggest reasons why I chose this dish and that is that they can be eaten with many other foods and it will always be rich, for example, it can be accompanied with meat, with rice, with sauces, mushrooms, vegetables and a lot more! They are also easy to prepare and everyone can eat them, they are the union food between people who eat meat, vegetarians and vegans haha ​​the years that I was a vegetarian were a great company, since when I went out to eat it was a bit difficult to find dishes that could eat. I have to say that my dad is not very good at cooking (I include myself in this), his recipes are quite limited and I have to say that sometimes they are limited to...
