Very rarely, nowadays do you come across anyone who has not been abroad.

• Only by living in a country where a language is spoken can you really learn it.

• Under no circumstances, tourists should be allowed to visit the Antarctic.

• Not until you have tried French cuisine will you truly know what good food is.

• Not only did I hate visiting monuments as a child but also I couldn’t stand going into museums.

• Only recently have I started going on holiday without my parents

• Never again will I go back to that place I went to last year on holiday.

what we can learn by writing and what.do we express by this

what do we learn by writing and what do we express by this?

My experience in my blog has been very useful because I have learned many things through it such as: how to write in a formal or informal way, to express my opinion, to convince the reader, to expose my point of view respecting others. But the most significant message that I have learned by this has been how I can trust on my own abilities.

As I told before, thanks to the blog I realized how able I am writing different topics and expressing ideas (maybe they were not the clearest, but at least I tried my best). Thus, I learned by my classmates. Most of them are really good at writing and have high levels of English which have been very practical to me. Thanks to my classmates' blog I have read good strategies of writing properly. Furthermore, I have practiced my reading skill and improve my writing skill.

On the other hand, I achieved a commitment with study, because I write one post by day which was very useful. Also, I comprehend how important write and practice are but at the same time, the importance of being committed with something. As a teacher, I consider that we must try our best to practice our four skills: reading, speaking, listening and writing by our own. For that reason, I think that this blog is a great opportunity to improve two of our skill.

To conclude, I personally believe, that this website must be considered by everyone, in terms of, expressing ideas, thoughts, feelings or whatever we want. As students, we must give a chance to write about ourselves and learned by our own. To me, the most important lesson was trust on my own skills and improve them in the best way. Beside, how significant can be learn from people around us. Every day, we learn many things, but in most of the times we ignore and forget them. Do you express your ideas? Would you like to writte about yourself and then check it and see how have you improved?

My house

I am passing to tell you about my little house. I live in a semi-detached house, which means that I have two neighbours. My house is conveniently located; I have the subway near of it.

If I would have to say any features of my house would be, that I live in the cosiest house in the world, thanks to God I do not have to live in cramped condition, actually my room is 6 metres by side…

But, I must admit that my mom has done a grate work, because if she had not had this ability, in term of decoration, our home would not have had its great appearance. My home is tastefully decorated.

Motivation

As a first impression about this article, I would like to point out that I assent in most of the point exposed in the writing.

For a long time, I have been ruminated what I would do if I have students who really do not care learning. What to do? It is difficult to answer because there is no single right answer. As a teacher must have conscious about students` motivation, and recognize that we are not going to have a complete motivated group. According to this, it is essential to our trying as teachers consider diversity inside the class, for instance: we are going to have students who are really good at doing something and another once doing other completely different thing, what does it mean is that there is no good or bad students.

What happen at schools is not that there are good or bad children. The thing is that every day we have less motivated student and more students who really do not mind learning. However, what really important is being able to recognize if all those students who are paying attention are truly motivated, and if all those who are at the back of the classroom are not really interested in anything but also ask what is the reason of their lack of interest.

What is going on at school? Why there are motivated students? Are they truly motivated? I do not have the answer yet, but what I would like to say is that at school are happening important things. It seems that school does not allow weaker students and if it does, does not do anything to get this situation better. Do schools consider just successful, stronger, clever students? Let’s reflect on it…

People in my life

Today, I would like to say something about people in our life. Have you ever asked how many people do you know? How many of them are important? what do them be important?

Every day we know anyone different. You know someone in terms of, frienship or relationship. But we do not consider all of them as important person in our life. The point is that, we define our relationship, but in order to what?

Let´s do something, try to wonder why you are or you have a friend. Do you need it? do you want it? All those kind of questions are difficult to answer, but maybe we have the answer and have not relized about it.

My dear, just try to reflect on it....why do you are a friend? and why do you have friends?

Schools kill creativity.

Firstly, I would like to point out my agreement about Sir Ken’s talk. I consider as an essential necessity talk about education and what is going on there. For that reason, what Robinson said was a good example of conscience and it makes us reflect on education and what people think and accepts as good there.

Do you agree that schools are killing creativity? I do not dare to assure that schools do that. What in my opinion school does is does not consider creativity as an important part of the school, it does not mean that it kills creativity. In that way, school omits creativity and ignores it. As a result, school does not kill something that has never considered.

In addition, we must analyze what is going on inside schools. Why does not school consider creativity in class? It seems that school aims to get competitive and passive people instead of autonomous, self – direct, but specially people who can be able to create their own lives, taking their tastes as a guide of their lives. However, school teaches them that there is no necessary to do and know that.

A sobering conclusion is that schools teach what society requires, in terms of, economic and politic development. As member of a society where it is not acceptable be different but rather you are molded by a certain interests, we must do something about it. Tomorrow you are going to be a worker, mother, father, and student. But when are you?

StereotypE...

Let´s take a look around you. Did you do it? What did see?

Well, my dear readers today I’m gonna write about something that everyone knows but most of the times we really ignore.

None of us are equal, in term of, appearance. You and me are different, we have different outward appearance, culture, knowledge, tastes and so on. Nevertheless, people make a mistake when judge people by their appearance but, have you ever asked why?

It seems that stereotypes make a disruptive influence in us. Every day we are guiding our tastes, for instance, by stereotypes. How many little girls try to imitate famous models, in term of, appearance and it is harmful for them because as they try to achieve a great body they injure their physical and mental health.

A sobering conclusion is how we have been contributing to this thought? Do we guarantee these stereotypes? As a teacher, how would you face this important issue?

Wanna learn, I wanna learn ...(8 post)

Since I was a child I took a bit of a shine to music and for that, I really admire musicians and I asked myself, how they can do that? One of my reasons of admiration for them was because I ever think that a person who has the skills to play an instrument (special violin) has a great talent. Also important is the ability to play an instrument, in term of, cognitive. In other words, I usually said how clever they are!! But, what I would like you to know is that all those kind of people who play any instrument make our world better. Have you ever imagined your life without music? For that reason, I really admire them and I would like to have a talent like them. All right, my dears this is what I would like to learn, I am fond of music!!

Is it so idealistic, isn´t?

Frankly, I think he is a great thinker, but most of his ideas are idealistic. I really appreciate his idea of recognize the economic problems the we have nowadays, such as : growth of slums, traffic congestion, air pollution, noise, economic waste, poorly coordinated municipal planning due to division of political authority.

About it, I consider as a good idea to recognize our problems, because in this way we are going to look for a solution and finally solve it. Also was mentioned an economic problem which in my opinion it is the most important obstacle that any improver plan have to face.

How a society which works with production, is going to consider environment?
Society must make a choice, environment (nature) or production (money and improvement)
Victor’s city suggests that, the solution it is in urban countryside. He mentioned that it is necessary rebuilding everything. He notices that it is necessary a new alone city. According to this I do not agree with him, because every change has to start from the older one. If you are going to create a new one, you have to consider the other one.

To conclude, I like Victor’s city, but I must confess that I do not understand some terms. However, I noticed about his good ideas in term of improvement. But I have to say that as society we should reflect on nature and what we are doing to get it better (…)

Autumn?

What is your opinion about season?

For instance, I was born
in June and I really enjoy when autumn is coming. Since I was a child
I asked myself if season makes any influence in my personality...I do not know.

Maybe, it makes an influence in a part of our personalities or tastes, who knows?

The point is that most of us, have a favourite season and we really enjoy when it is coming.
But, what is the resason? what do you think?... let me know(...)

Workaholic? (7 post)

As worker or student, we are tired every day because of our work. For that reason it is necessary take a holiday...but, do we have time to do that?
How many times we have said: I’ll get away from it all, but as soon as I could, I I’ll make it...or someone asks you: When are you going on vacation? It is still up in the air...

What I want you suggest is that we do not have to invest all our effort or attention in just one thing like our job... Have you ever asked yourself if you work to live or you live to work? As per usual, we let our interests aside. Each morning we are breaking our back working overtime and the day ends in the same way.

Come on! Have a ball on your own...Make your choice...

Children (..) Have you ever asked what they wanted to tell you?(6 post)

.

...We do understand them, I guess
Most of the times, people do not consider children as members of family, group of friends, or society. As adults, ignore children in term of taking a decision, saying an opinion or something like that.

Children are by far the best learner, but we do not see that. How many times we have been required for them to do something, however we just tell them: I am so sorry but you are so little!!!

But, when we want them to obey any order we say: you have grown up so...we must let them choose by their own decision and do not choose by them, they have their own opinion.
Have we heard what they have to say? We do let them to do that?
