Blog 6: English Language Challenge

Imagen
Hi everyone! In this case, I´m going to write about my experience learning English at university. I think English here is so much better than the school, because there I just learnt about grammar and not so much about talking, listening or writing, so I preffer English at university because it´s more fluid and I could improve my English skills by talking with classmates or seeing a video. I believe that the thing that I like most of the program is the social aspect that the classes have, including themes like racism, feminism and othe topics that makes the class more enjoyable and funny. I believe that the use of blogs is very helpful, because it´s difficult to me to write in English, sometimes I know how to say a word but I don´t know how to write it haha, so the blogs were very helpful in that way for me.   I think that I need to improve writing, because it still is difficult to me and I think that a great way to improve this is mix listening with writing, maybe when I liste...

Blog 5: Changes to my study program

Imagen
 Hi everyone! Today I´m going to write about changes that I would like to do to my study program.  About the subjects that I have to study, I would like to add more biology contents, focus more on the biological process of our body and how that affects in our mental health, because I think that it´s very important at the time to doing therapy, and the university is more focus on the social aspects from the pacient, so I believe that we need a balance between both features. Another thing that I would like to change in the university is based on the faculty facilities. I think that the faculty needs more green areas, because it could helps a lot with stress and relaxing for the students. Also, I would like to do more facilities to study, like libraries or places to work in groups, because there are a few in the university and we need more space to do this activity. Another thing to change in the program is based on the practicity of our subjects. I think it´s very important to w...

Blog 4: Post-Graduate Studies

Imagen
H i! Today I´m gonna talk about Post-Gra duate Studies I have considered study a Master´s Program, because I think that, as a future psychologist, I need a lot of knowledgement to be a good professional and also give to my pacient all the cares that he or she will need from me. I would like to do a Master focus on clinical or social psychology, specially one focus on children and teenagers in vulnerable situations, to have the tools and develop all the abilities to work with that groups. I would like to study in Chile because it´s the reality that I´m gonna see when I work as a psychologist, and to focus better on the context from the people who live here. Otherwise, I want to study in other countries to, like Spain maybe, because I want to know more about other perpectives from the psychology, and also to travel and know other cultures at the same time, I think that would be a great experience to me.  I really like to study that Master in presencial form, because i´ts easier to me...

Blog 3: My dream job

Imagen
 Hi everyone! I´m going to talk about my dream job. I started   to study psychology because I really like to interact with people, listen their problems and help them with solutions, especially kids and teenagers. I want to work in the future at a center with kids, like the Sename, because when I was younger I made voluntary service there and another centers too, so I want to help the kids in there because I know that I can give to them skills to increase their quality of life, independent of the difficult situations that they live. For that, I´m gonna need a lot of skills to treat them, but I expect that this carreer bring me lots of skills to deal with the problems that I´m going to see there. I don´t expect a lot of money from that work because I know that the public founds for that place are low and insufficient, but I can complement that work with a private counciling, which i´ts a nice work for me too. In this private counciling I would like to have different payments ...

Blog 2: The best vacation ever

Imagen
 Hi everybody! I´m going to talk about my best vacations ever. The best vacations that I ever had was in 2017. I went to the south of Chile. It was for two weeks, and I went with my parents. It was really beautiful because I want to travel there since I was a kid, but I didn´t have the oportunity to go before, and as a family we never did a trip for that long before, and so far too. The best part that I visited was Huilo Huilo, which i´ts a biological reserve, and it has a big forest, animals from that zone and waterfalls. Also, I went to Villarica, and we went to see the volcano and we did trekking there. We met Pucon too, and we stayed in this beautiful cabin closet o te river. It was a really good experience to live with my family, and I hope that we can do that trip again (without covid please hahah), and visit other places near too, like Valdivia.

Blog 1: A country I would like to visit

Imagen
Hi! My name is Valentina and I would talk about the country that I would like to visit the most, Thailand. I want to go to this country because I'm really interest in their culture, and I think that they have beautiful landscapes, specially the Phi-Phi islands, which I think that it's the place that I want to visit more in there, but I want to visit the capital of the country too, Bangkok. I want to be really involved in they culture, know more about the religion because the Buddism is the most relevant religion there, and I wanna learn more about it, the traditions like the anual festival "Loy Krathong" in Chiang Mai, (the second city that I want to visit the most) and another celebrations, and (obviously) eat a lot of traditional Thai food. I hope to go there for six months to a year, to know better the culture and the traditions, and also to travel a lot and see lots of lovely landscapes. I expect not to work there and just enjoy the visit to the country, but if I ...
