English 4 INAP

H i everybody :) I hope you had a great week! Today we are going to talk about your future job! Well, in my case I will talk about what I like about working in the University of Chile. I started working here in March 2016 and I really like it for various reasons. I really like the focus of the English Program. I also really like working in the Campus Juan Gomez Millas because I studied here in 2012-2013 and have many good memories, but also because it is familiar to me.  Another reason that I like working in the University of Chile is the English Program. Although I have some criticisms of the program I really like how they encourage us to focus on communicational skills and not focus on grammar, which I honestly believe is the best way to learn a language: using it with or without errors because practice makes perfect. We also try to make the classes student-centered, which means that the student is the protagonist. Regarding the classes, as I mentioned in the first class, I desig...

Hi everyone, Hope all is well. Today we are going to talk about postgraduate studies :) Well, in my case, I already have done a postgraduate studies. I studied Latin American Literature and finished in from 2010 to 2014 at Eckerd College in the State of Florida. In 2015, I took a postgraduate course called CELTA - (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) so I could become an English Teacher. I studied in the British-Chilean Institute of Culture in Santa Lucía. I studied part-time: I worked in the University of Diego Portales during the day and studied at night. I'm happy that I did the course and I learned a lot in such a short period since the course was an intensive course that lasted from March to June. Sometimes I consider taking a Master's course, something in Caribbean Literature since I really love that type of literature. I'm sure many of you realized since I use a lot of Caribbean Literature in our classes. But then I think about it and I do...

  Hi everyone! Today we are talking about TV series! Well, yesterday I finished watching the series: The Snitch Cartel Origins (El cartel de los sapos: el origen) on Netflix. It's a Colombian series based on a book by Andrés López and it's about the two brothers, Leonardo and Emanuel Villegas Ulloa, that founded the Cali Cartel. It has 60 episodes! I really liked it because it starts in the 1950s and ends in the 1990s, showing all the phases of the two brothers. It starts out very much like a  telenovela  and then becomes more like Narcos towards the end. This series is found on Netflix. I watch series on Netflix and Disney Plus. I used to watch pirated series but they had too many pop-up adds and took forever to load, so I decided to watch series the legal way.  Thanks to Disney Plus I have been able to watch my favorite shows from when I was kid such as Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, and Jessie. Shows that I have watched more than once on Netflix are Eli...
