English language challenges



I understand 
Hello everyone!

The idea of English-learning process as a policy in our country still, at least for me, a dream. We, as Chileans, still having the idea that learning a second language is just a four or five words and it's only matter for make ours CVs bigger. But, in the last years I have observed an interesting way. The development of tourism has forced to some people to be able to talk in at least a second language, and English seems to be a kind of "joining Language". Two people, don't matter their nationality, could find through English a way of an almost fluid communication. And that's maybe the final point of a learning process: a way of joining cultures. 

I believe, if we, as a country,  want to incorporate the English in our lives, the tourism market could make a basic stone in a future two languages culture, not only with English, we also should incorporate the native languages as a cultural value.
Another aspect, and that's maybe a future fight with our national idiosyncrasy, it's the idea of making things well.  If we want to learn English and added as a way of life, please make it good! We can't stay thinking in a "it's just enough" policy where we will learn a few phrases and thinking ourselves as polyglots! The result of “do only the strictly necessary" is embarrassing!

As a student, being here writing and expressing ideas, al also being force to talk in the class help me to understand that my learning process will never end. Also, teachers and students must always search and find new ways to learn and have fun in the process. Learning has to be fun. We are talking of the idea of using a second language not because we must to have new knowledge, we are learning to communicate the people all around the world, making friends and sharing experiences.  The history has made English and almost a universal language, you can always find someone who could understand us in English and make simpler the communication process. Learn English, and do it well.

Best Regards.

  1. Hi Cristobal!
    I don't know why, but when I read you.. I felt you are so serious and realistic with this topic, Maybe I think that because the previous topics were more personal, whatever :D. I think the same that you. We as country must incorporate the English in our lives,
    not only in the schools like subject, not.
    I agree with you regarding to the teachers and students must always search and find new ways to learn and have fun in the process. I think the learning process do not should why boring. Considering we always are learning new things, the ideal is if we would can to find the manner to make the learning a comfortable process and simply

Talking about my Blogging Experience

Hello everyone! Today I have the opportunity of talk about the experience of writing blogs and how does it work on the learning process.  I have to say I’m not good writing personal things, not even in Spanish, because I use to be very worried about my private life. Anyway, I can (and I did) the sacrifice of trying to express the things I’ve been asked to write, as my hobby or appreciation of some specifics topics. At the time writing I started to notice some points: first: I have to admit that I know vocabulary in English but I didn’t know how to write correctly some words (thanks for the translator system that helps me to correct those words). Second. It’s not so simple to express what I’m thinking, so, be “ forced” to write help me to improve my abilities thinking and expressing in English. Third, I have to be open to make and correct mistakes and find new ways to write what I want to write. I believe should be very interesting to keep improving the experience to m...

Working in the House of Cards

When someone says you have a free topic to talk about in a blog post, It's so hard to me to define what  I could choose to talk about. While I'm writing this  I started to thought on the people I’ll be working with in the future When we read the news, the idea of a future seems to be, for one side, very espectacular with a lot of new technologies and the opportunity of enjoy the development of mankind, but thirty seconds later I realized this world is going into a black hole without solution thanks to the ambition of power. Let’s think about what the news show us every day: a political section with a lot of people with almost no sense discussions while the real problems of the people are covered with fake smiling y and “we will do it” proposes. At the same time some governments threat others with nuclear bombs and putting the world in the line of the death and total destruction.  This idea is very depressing, and the solution seems to be not the read news, but tha...

We’re thirsty

Hello Today I want to talk about a special topic related to my career of Public Administration. I’ll talk about the problem of drought and water laws in the country. Is been asked to explain some changes that must be necessary to apply and find a solution of the problem of water. Let’s start by the history. Water as a fluid has been always considered as a resource, which could be exploited as the same way as cooper or steal. That means, a private could ask for the government to buy the right of use a certain amount of water and be able to take from rivers o water wells. In that way, the laws and regulations are only made to regulate how a person or an industry can use the water. By other side, in the cities there are only laws according the use of drinking water and what to do with the dirty water (specially trying to “clean” and return the water into the river to be used in the fields). So, what to do if we have problems with the water? Today the government only coul...
