Blogging Experience

Image
I think writing a blog was the best way I have learned English, because it was fun and interesting! It was not the typical boring activities in some English page or some English program. Also the class environment was great, so it was more funny go to classes and do the activities. I love writing, so it was very entertaining for me do the blogs (Although I delayed writing). I love to express myself in any topic, and also I love to read so I enjoyed reading the blogs of my classmates and friends haha I have never written so much and continuously, so I think the blog helped me a lot with my writing skills and drafting. Also writing in English, helped me to communicate and write better in this language. So my writing skills has improved in both languages, english and spanish. I don’t know exactly what I would include in the future, but maybe something that helped us to expand our imagination, a little essay or a report (practicing for the future). I would like to write about the fi...

Travels!

Image
Every year, my family and I go to La Serena, because my mom has all her family there. We love them! So we go to visit them every summer vacation, winter vacation, easter week, national holidays, and honestly every time we got the enough time. We make a great team haha. Our favorite place to travel is Elqui, because is such a magical and beautiful place! Everyone in my family notices that something changes us, like we calm down and only enjoy the time between us. In summer vacations we only stayed in Paihuano, but for some reason one time, years ago, we decided to change of place. Bad option. We were all the day searching for a house in Cochiguaz for all of us, but we were 14 people that day, and there were missing 4 more! Also we had 4 dogs with us! Haha We couldn’t find a nice house, near to the river (because the heat in the valley in summer is incredible) that were comfortable for each one. So we decided to go finally to Paihuano, to the house that every one of my family loves. T...

A Subject I've enjoyed studying this semester

A subject I have enjoyed studying this semester is General Chemistry, but on my own, because classes are not so funny or interesting.Also Maths 1 and English. The first one is theoretical, the next semester is going to be practical with the chemistry lab <3. Maths is theoretical too, and a little bit practical because of Maple´s lab. An english is theoretical and practical. I didn't choose them because of the teachers or something, but because of the schedule, I'm happy with that. If I could change something about the courses it would be in Chemistry, because I love Chemistry and sometimes it makes me sad that the subject is not taught to 100%, and also that the teachers don't tell us freak but interesting details, they don't make connections that make students understand better the subject. It's like they only say what is in books, and that is boring and it limits our motivation as students. I don't know exactly what is my favourite aspect of General Chem...
