English Language Challenges

English Language Challenges

  

 First of all, I really like english. I would like to have more hours at week dedicated to this language, but I don't like the British english, oh no! I would like to talk "Spanglish", Of course I can't even imagine a course of it (LOL) but we already talk spanish so it combined with a good english, we can speak a new language like that, the spanglish.

  But to get it, we should to give more importance to this subject, as I said on the last post, we should have more hours and more days at weeks. 

Personally, I like this mix between English and Spanish because it has relish, yes! Latino as me, as Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, etc.. Of course, this last one looks more like an american (LOL) so I like JLO ! 

    However, that's another item. About Enlish at this University, I like the video's system and the blog's system, yes, I think it helps us a lot ( and even more that a written test). Of course, we are at the end of the year and sometimes we forget to post or to send the video (so sad), but I speak for all when I say I prefer this that a test. 

     I use English Everyday, because of I practice my spanglish with friends who are living in Miami and Puerto Rico (Yes, I dream with go there, someday..you know, I have the Relish jajaja)  

English programme: Improving the learning experience

English programme: Improving the learning experience 

First of all, I think that a semester (six months as it must to be) should be enought for a level of english but is IMPOSSIBLE that with only three hours at week we could learn a language it all. Considering that those three hours are never three hours in real (because of the breaks/ dead minutes at the start and the end of the class, etc). Besides, we only have this subject two days at week (one and a half hours every class. But we don't really use all that time). So, yes, one semester it's OK, but please! one hour at monday and one hour at friday? ..  Is the same for every language (not native, of course), english, french, german, etc. 

  About thecnology.. well, it is okay but it would be better if it'd be used. I mean, We should use more radio (listening), to talk between us more,  to read more (to know new words in english, more difficult concept that we'll use for sure if we travel to USA/England/UK/ etc..). But we have a classroom and that's right and the faculty facilities are right too, I can't say otherwise :D .

   Finally, About the teaching methods, I like the video's system! I like doing videos (even if I forget to send it all the time, so sad). But I like it, I like it more than making a writting test (LOL) . I would like to interact more, I mean " teacher<--->students" (the most of the class) . But it's ok, I know that some people don't like to talk in front of the class so I respect that, but I would like to talk more with the teachers in class. 

   

Sport Journalism : A butcher's street

 

The worked field of journalism is very limited, but the one of  sport's journalism. More specifically, soccer, is a word almost impossible to be in, even more for a woman (a blonde woman, ok? ) .
    It's like to walk on a butcher's street !! Personally, I wanna work on T.V and my focus is on the TOP, I mean I won't settle being the girl who read the "twitters" (yes, hashtags and twitts of a players or even the post of a wife's player) NO WAY!. I won't be satisfied until be the girl on the front of the camera commenting and analyzing a match, showing all I know, my skills.
   I think that T.V should be renewed, is a shame there are  still the same big (and old) figures talking about the same old concepts of soccer. The same people talking about the same sh... same things.
   But the worst part is that those people , who don't even studied the career, don't allow new people on T.V and even on radio (the classic radios). But hey! I don't mean that no one can be in, in this last time we have seen new faces on T.V like "Grace Lazcano", but of course, I don't want to open the debate about maleness on this (flour of another bag).
  However, as we don't have "extra help", we must to start from... well, from the start. I mean, how it supposed to be.
 Will it be hard? yes, of course, but I'll get it for sure!!

postgraduate course

  Is not a mistery that I want to dedicate my life to became in the best sport's commentator, analyst and, of course, journalist. But that way won't be easy and I cant base my comments on what I hear and what people talk about the match, NO! I must to have a solid foundation and a critical arguments about tactical and technical  system's. That is not ease, that isn't something that you learn listening the radio or watching T.V shows about soccer.
  To become in who I wanna be I must to do the Coach's Course and learn topycs as the "team managment", systems as the 4-4-2 (my favorite), 3-5-2, 4-3-3 ..etc .
 I hope I would study this on the INAF, because The soccer Technician, or coach, graduated from the INAF has a wealth of knowledge, skills and abilities that enable him to perform efficiently in the formative and competitive work of male and female soccer, amateur and professional. The comprehensive technical training would acquired enable me to integrate multidisciplinary work teams and make logical and safe decisions in my specialty.
Maybe I will be working so I will study part-time or in a nightly time. Yes, It will be difficult but I'll get it for sure!!
