English 4 Section 2 - FCEI

Hi everyone,  I hope you are all well. This is the last blog! Today you are going to write about changes that could be made in your career like the new building, curriculum change, new teaching methods, etc. Since I don't study anymore I will list some changes that could be made in the English Program are like adding English Level 5 and 6. Plus we could add Film and Literature Classes in English. I think it would be interesting and fun to have this type of courses since it could improve students' learning of English. I also think it would be nice to have summer classes and workshops to help students that need more practice. I think this would improve Chile's English level in general, but we also need to have better working conditions for teachers! Now it's your turn: Write about some changes that could be made to your study program (career) Among others, think about: > The curriculum (the subjects you have to study) > Workload and length of studies > Faculty fa...

But let's remember that it is up to us to create the future that we want in the present! And how about you?  In your post write about: Where would you like to go? Why? What t...

H i everybody :) I hope you are having a great week! Today we are going to talk about your future job! Well, in my case I will talk about what I like about working in the University of Chile. I started working here in March 2016 and I really like it for various reasons. I really like the focus of the English Program. I also really like working in the Campus Juan Gomez Millas because I studied here in 2012-2013 and have many good memories, but also because it is familiar to me.  Another reason that I like working in the University of Chile is the English Program. Although I have some criticisms of the program I really like how they encourage us to focus on communicational skills and not focus on grammar, which I honestly believe is the best way to learn a language: using it with or without errors because practice makes perfect. We also try to make the classes student-centered, which means that the student is the protagonist. Regarding the classes, as I mentioned in the first class, ...
