My experience learning English at the University

Today I will write about my experience learning English at the university.
First of all, I started the English class last semester in level three, so, now I am in my second semester of English class. And there were done for different teacher. I could say that the first one was very different with the second one.

I could recognise a lot of really good things of the way that this semester had done.
We always did the classes sat in a circle, which allow that we were constantly watching our faces. In this way also we could listen better to the other, we could identify the really thing that the other wanted to express, watching there expressions.

Also those allow that the classes were very dynamic. Everybody was very wake up and attentive, even when we were very tired. Maybe because when we are constantly listening and talking, it is no time to distracted and we always be paying attention

We talked about a lot of different things. For example, about our experience with our family, university, etc.

Other important thing is that because we were not so much students, the teacher could use a personal education, so it was difficult that someone remained behind.
Talking and listening to the other is a good way to practise a language.

Also we could improve our English redaction, because every month we must write about two bloggs. There we could practise our vocabulary, our expressions and also it was a good way to think in English.

A not very good point is that some days we had evaluation which are not the best way to evaluate a language learn.

I have to recognise the great teacher that we had. He showed us an entertainment way to learn a language. For this reason we have to thanks his work with us.

Bye, and I will not return.
Luck!

Free Iraq

Today I’ll talk about the last warlike conflict between The United States of America and Iraq. Even though it’s been a while since it ended, I find it relevant to stop in a reflexive way to understand its cause.
The objective of this war was supposed to be bringing down Sadam Huseins tyranny that had oppressed this country for many years. To set the country free.
To help a country that has been oppressed is not a bad idea, but the way chosen to reach this objective is the important matter.
Trough this war, Iraqis citizens generated different protests asking their “saviors” to leave them alone. Why? Shouldn’t they be grateful for being setting free? Well, maybe they are just as free as they were before the USA invasion, or worse.
To search freedom using violence seems ironic, to impose democracy by force seems ironic as well.
Iraqis died by “missed” bombs in more than one occasion, and rebel forces from the country have murdered in terrorist attacks their own people to protest against the foreign invasion. The search of freedom turned in to the oppression of liberties.
Iraqis lost their families and friends, liberation process did not help them at all. Maybe there was no intention of liberating the country at all. Maybe there was another reason to set this country “free”, maybe war was not intended to help them, but take advantage from them. It wouldn’t be the first time the strong takes over the wick.

I Hope this has meaning for you too.
Bye,
Florencia.
