Hello, my name is Amanda Solari and in this blog I am going to tell you about my experience in this English program and my recommendations for it. I think this English program is a very special program because it works very independently from other faculties. This clearly brings some difficulties in terms of organization with other university courses for example, because this class works on a very different schedule, which has consequences in this case for me because it has sometimes been difficult to go to classes by myself because the schedules didn't fit in with the class. Unlike last year, this semester I had face-to-face classes, unlike the previous semester where it was mostly online classes. That's why I'm seeing all the classes that I have now from another perspective. In fact, I like the structure that is used for the blogs for example and I like the way the teacher teaches in general and the time he gives to finish all the blogs. Personally, I think that learning ...

Hello everyone, in this blog I am going to talk about my study program and the changes that I would eventually make to it. I think my study program is very complete, in fact I decided to study sociology instead of another career because the sociology study plan includes social theory and practice. On this last point, I think that my study program needs some changes, because sociology and social sciences in general tend to stay in theory and not make concrete changes in society. I think this is the most important thing to be a sociologist or other social scientist, to be an agent of change. Regarding the workload and the duration of the studies, I think it's fine, but sometimes the organization of this is very confusing or the distribution is poorly done, consequently, this becomes a very heavy workload that causes a lot of stress and anxiety. So, I think that if some changes were implemented in the study program based on the best efficiency of all students, everything could be less...

  Hello everyone, in this blog I am going to talk about my hypothetical trip to the future and to the past.  I really like going to the future because I would like to see myself and my friends in our future lives. I would really like to see my future family and my future projects, but I also think that this is very dangerous because destiny is not written, we write destiny every day. That is why if I travel to the future I would like to see society in general rather than see myself specifically. But if I go back in time, I do like to see another period, one I could not live in, like the crazy years '20s. However, I would not like to stay in another era different from mine for a long time, because everyone has to live in their time, I think that we do not have to live, for example, in the crazy years 20's, because it is not our time and for the same reason it can be very dangerous. While I am writing this blog I was reminded of the movie "Back to the Future", since I t...

  Hello everyone, in this blog I am going to tell you about my dream job. When I was a child I wanted to be many things, such as a farmer, a doctor, an opera singer, a merchant, an astronaut, and really any job that allowed me to travel around the world giving me the possibility to change it. In short, I would like a job that contemplates working with animals and traveling, that would be the job of my dreams. For that I need many skills, such as veterinary and medical knowledge, manage myself in many languages, have all the necessary implements and know how to use them among others. I believe that all people in the world deserve to work in the job of their dreams, because we deserve to be happy and live with peace and self-realization. But in reality we know that it is not true, we do not have a dream job because we need money to survive and to feed our families. In today's reality with dreams we cannot pay the bills. It's very sad, because if I think of a parallel reality wher...

  Hi everyone! My last vacations were in February of this year, 2022. I went camping in a far away native forest in Chillan for two weeks. I went with my best friend from university and her family and other friends. It was a long journey to get there, also a beautiful one. Finally when we arrived there I was very surprised because I had never seen so much nature.  We did a lot of things, we walked a lot in the native forest and we swam in a very cold river. We cooked a lot of delicious recipes like spaghetti with tomato sauce and other vegetarian recipes like hummus. In fact, I loved the idea of living in this place, the peace and the silence were wonderful. This experience is one of the best I have had in my life because traveling there reminded me of the meaning of life and how time passes very fast and how we do not see that very often.   Thanks for reading about my last vacations Kind regards

  Hi everyone! If I had a lot of money, I would like to go to Brazil in the near future, because it is a very beautiful country and the people are very kind, warm and happy. In addition I like the hot climate of Brazil because everyone can use light clothing and I like the culture's history too. In Brazil, I would like to travel around all the country, including the jungle and if I can camp, I would like it very much. Eventually, I would like living in this country because it is relatively close to Chile and if I do not like it, I can go over to my house with my family and my friends very quickly.  In fact, maybe I would like living in Brazil, but I don´t like living alone. in consequence, I would invite my friends or my family to live with me. Thanks for reading about my eventual travel to Brazil! Kind regards

Inspiration for my career

Paulo Freire is a Brazilian teacher whose specialty is intervention in discriminated and vulnerable communities through pedagogy. One of his most important contributions to the world was his theory of the "pedagogy of the oppressed", that is why he is the person related to my career. He also wrote many books such as "Education for critical consciousness", "The politics of education", "Learning to question. A pedagogy of liberation", "Cultural action for freedom", among others. His theories inspired me a lot to act and think in my everyday life. The fact of thinking about something like changing the world for the most discriminated people, is my wish, to be able to help and contribute to this transformation as Paulo Freire does with his theories. Aforementioned, I really like a website called “ https://ondamedia.cl ”. On this site you can see all the Chilean movies you want. In general it is a site that exposes a lot of culture and natio...
