Last post: English language Challenges

I consider that this subject is very important in the complete professional and personal formation, because today is required to know English in a lot of jobs, and this is like a universal language.  For this reason the university like institution destined to educate us, is perfect place for learn or in some cases to improve a language that is not own.

The use of blogs is innovative, I never had use a blog and I thought attractive how we could to share differents points with respect to same topics, or in my case, to learn about sociological perspective. The blogs were like screens that showed a part of us: our history, preferences, opinions,  expectatives of future, among other things. And of course this technological resource was good for see the manage of English that my classmates and me have.

Personally, I since that I was in school I have had interest in this language. I like it, but I find some difficult to learn it, overall when I have to listen someone speaking english. I recognize that I need to improve my comprehension and writing, and I have to increase my vocabulary. For get this objective, it came to my mind the possibility to dedicate everyday at least twenty minutes to listen something said in English, can be a song, a movie, a serie. The idea is start for simples sentences and gradually to add difficulty. Also, I don´t  rule the possibility to take a intensive course in the future, if so I require. 

I try to use English outside the classes, but is complicated when the rest of people don´t to know it. The only exception is an aunt that studied traslation, when I am with her I try to speak the most that I can and I ask her about any words, pronunciation and other things. When I do it, my intention is to practice this language, use it in everyday situations.

I would like to master English!!

My future job

When you are in third grade is natural think in the future therefore you think  what major you will take most of all when the offer of major  is so varied.  Well, personally  I have in mind to take a major in Clinical Psychology, because I like so much this field; specialized in treat the emotional and behavioral disorders.

I would like to work as infant and child psychologist, trying of help to children and their parents to understand what happening them and wich are the best strategies for try with psychological difficulty for example.

For choose a job I would consider a salary to match with my performs and to match with position that I will hold. Also, I think that is important to keep in mind how is the work atmosphere because this can influence me in my task, for this reason is very preferable that  there is good organizational climated. Others aspects that would be importants for me, could be to have any benefits, would be ideal that the job is located near of my house, in such a way that I don´t delay to arrive.

With respect to my strengths I can recognize that I am able to work in a team without problems, I have many patience, and I have good disposition to play the role that assign me. For other hand,  I’m terrible for come to time, tardiness is one of my biggest flaws.

Discrimination

The discrimination has been a social problem during many time and that seems none stop. I don´t know exactly why people discriminate but I suppose that the reason for discriminate is that any people have a feel of superiority and they need show their individuality and satisfy their  feel of superiority. The chilean society is very discriminative, we can see in Chile how people discriminates to people for many aspects: religion, race and culture, social strata (therefore, discrimination for economic situation), appearance,  age, political and sexual preference, physical and psychological condition, among others. Now in our country there is a law about this topic, this is called “Anti-discrimination Law”. This was born since case of Daniel Zamudio, a homosexual young man that was brutally killed for his sexual condition.
Also, is usual see how in jobs interviews to discriminate for  appearance, because the society believe that “the look” of someone can give them more information about how is that person than content of his speech.
I know that sound strange but I never have felt discriminated, at least not that necessary for remember it. Nevertheless I have felt that the old people don´t consider entirely my opinion.
We need change education about the diversity and to teach since kids to people about tolerance and respect to all people independent of their religion, skin color, social position, etc. Many people say that “everybody are same” but is not true, "Everybody are same" compared to how valuable we are and relevance of our existence. Somehow everyone is a piece of a big puzzle.
